The speed of the business world can be amazing…except, maybe, for the hiring process.
Answer: Around 20-40 days on average
Questions:
- If you’ve already experience going from job interview to job offer, how long did it take?
- Why do you think it can take so long for companies to finally offer a job to a candidate?
- As a job seeker, what are some pros and cons of this process typically taking 20-40 days?
Behind the numbers (Seed Scientific):
“The often-excruciating average response time after an interview seems like it goes on forever sometimes—evaluating candidates after interviews isn’t an easy task. Employers need to take their time to opt for the optimal candidate, though, and that can take a while.
So how long after an interview is a job offer made? According to the data at hand, the average job offer comes around 20 to 40 days following an interview.”
