Civil Svc/ Statboard - Typical Timeline for making a Hiring Decision

Went for interview with director on the job it was an hour and nice to know more about the role. V comfortable exchange and thought I landed the job. After 1 week I asked the HR and she said is still under review and interviewing other candidates. Any luck I can land the offer? Pls advice till when is the process completed? Keeping us hanging on hope here haha

Hi All,

Anyone knows that typically if the application status is changed to in process does it mean that they are actively considering your application, as compared to if your status is still submitted? Does it also varies with different stat boards and some might not change your status at all? Also, is it a must to submit your results in the application or I can wait till they request for it?

Thanks!

Same here. Mine was 30minute interview and director told me they going to hire me but need to have another interview with group director as that day he has urgent meeting. After that I checked with HR for update and she said in midst of interviewing other candidates. can check with u which SB are you applying?
