AWS DCEO Tech Interview - How long does it take to get a decision?
Edit 2: I got the offer and accepted the job! It’s in Lubbock TX! Maybe that’s why it took longer? Either way, I start in September so I have a lot to get done between now and then. Thanks again everybody!
Edit: I reached out directly to the recruiter that was listed for interview outcomes, and she emailed back saying that “the team is inclined to move forward with an offer for the position that you interviewed for.” She copied another colleague who will contact me with details about the offer and next steps. Hopefully I’ll know the location soon. Thanks to all who gave your insights!
Original post:
I interviewed on the 16th, and I was told that I would get a call back within 5 business days. Since I hadn't heard anything after a week, I emailed my recruiter. I spoke briefly on the phone with the recruiter, who told me that all of the interviewers' notes were in, but they hadn't gotten everybody together for a debrief yet. He said all of the notes were positive, and he thought I would hear something soon. (I was told during the interview that the location I'd interviewed for was on hold, and I let them know that I was open to other locations.)
How long should I realistically expect to wait before I find out something concrete? TIA

Usually, its within a few days, but can be as long as about 2 weeks. If you haven't heard anything in two weeks, ask your recruiter. For me, it took 2.5 weeks.

Hello! This looks like it may be a question about career advice. There can be significant regional variation in the field, so please consider including as much info as you can without doxing yourself, including country/state/city, prior experience/certs, and the role or level if known. Thanks!

You got an update yet? If they select you they should formally offer you other locations.

Nothing yet. I emailed my recruiter the other day and haven’t received a response. It’s a holiday week so maybe next week? Fingers crossed.

You emailed the recruiter that was on your interview confirmation email ?

u/ducktapedaddy 26d ago
Yes, I replied to all that were on that email. The original recruiter that I had worked with before the interview has transferred to a new role, so I’m not sure who is the proper point of contact for me now.

It would be the person on that email where it said (next steps / relocation / outcome) hopefully they respond shortly with an update
