conv: When I applied for the job I have now_comma_ it took them almost a month to get back to me.  I contacted them two or three times and they kept telling me they were working on it. When I applied for the job I have now it took them like a month to get back to me with a final answer.  It was pretty stressful. My brother just graduated and is on the job hunt_comma_ and he's described his experience as the same thing.. Seems like he has good interviews and they're receptive to him_comma_ but they don't really respond or give him an answer. Sorry to hear you guys go through that. Can't imagine how frustrating it is Super frustrating.  It worked out in the end_comma_ but I had to bug them a few times to make sure they hadn't abandoned me. Good on you for being aggressive and opportunistic. Maybe they found that to be the motivating factor to give you the job. I hope it's been good so far.
