I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at William Grant & Sons (New York, NY)

Interview

The interview process went fine overall. Scheduling was a bit tough/drawn out but the recruiter was very responsive. The only curious thing, the salary range initially was decreased quite a bit just after completing the final round (3 rounds total).

Senior Resource Manager

Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!
