Rant + need some positive vibes.
I thought I would be getting an offer today after completing reference checks last week but no. This "sync" today was them letting me know that I'm an awesome candidate and my references had nothing but amazing things to say about me but that they will now make the final decision between myself and a few other candidates. ๐I am very confused how they will even make the decision at this point with multiple people that passed references.
They are an awesome company but have really stretched this thing out. I have been so patient and was assuming the final answer would be last week. Is this common for sales leaders/companies to do? I have never not gotten an offer after references in my career. Also, if I don't get the job, now I have to use my references again? That is bizarre to me. These are not my buddies, these are senior leaders that I worked hard and long with to earn them as references. Now I have to go back and ask for more?
Really at a loss here because I have no clue what they are going to base their decision on. Vibes? Personality? Come on. The interview process has been grueling and not landing this is going to suck.
I know I sound like a little B right now but I just need to get this off of my chest. This community has been really good to me and I appreciate every comment, reply etc. You all have helped me through a lot and I just need some positive energy.
