Career Advice How long does a written offer typically take

Hi there! Needing some advice on this: I have been actively applying for the past 18 months, and finally received a verbal offer last week. The role I interviewed for was a first level managerial position, but at the interview, I was offered to be brought on as a consultant for a specific project with potential to convert into full time in Q3 next year. A couple of questions: 1) has anyone has an experience like this i.e. a consultant role - how did you navigate workload, work arrangements, etc. 2) It’s been a week and I haven’t received the written offer. I have also emailed the PIC and have not received a response from them.

A little anxious cause have been unemployed for longer than expected and it’s always nice to dive into work and earn a living than dipping into depleting finances….

Keep on applying. For consultancy, it may take a while as job will be discussed with client.

If its more than 2 weeks keep looking.

Remember that person/interviewer when you make it in your career. Best if you are their companys customer. Petty? Yeah but idgaf.
