Karikari_ume's journey

I'm currently in the waiting phase after my third interview for a position at my top-choice company. I was told I would hear back within three business days, but it's been longer than that, and I'm starting to feel like I might be getting ghosted. On the 22nd, I sent a follow-up email but haven't received any response yet. Since this is my first experience interviewing for a U.S. company, I'm unsure about the etiquette of reaching out to the interviewer on LinkedIn. I noticed that the company has been quite busy recently with their anniversary event and a new launch, which makes me hesitant to disturb them. However, I really want to express my continued interest in the role. I'm not connected with the interviewer on LinkedIn, so I'm debating whether it's appropriate to send a message. Any advice would be appreciated!

Today marks the fifth business day since my third interview with my top-choice company. They had mentioned that they would notify me of the results within three business days, and if I didn’t hear back, I should follow up. I sent a follow-up email first thing on the fourth business day, but I still haven't received a response. This is my first time interviewing in the U.S., and the waiting is making me really anxious. I'm starting to wonder how long I should wait before considering that I've been 'ghosted.' I’ve heard different experiences from others, and it’s tough not knowing what to expect.

I have an upcoming interview scheduled with a company that is currently busy preparing for its annual major event. I requested specific interview dates three business days ago, but I haven't received any confirmation yet. Normally, I would expect a reply within a day, so I'm starting to feel a bit anxious about the lack of communication. I'm considering sending a follow-up email, but I'm hesitant because I used AI translation to communicate my preferred dates, and I don't want to add to their stress during this busy time. I wonder if the delay is simply due to their event preparations. I've read that three days isn't a long time, especially during such a hectic period, so I'm thinking I might wait until day five before reaching out again. I want to ensure I stay on their radar without coming off as pushy.

I had my second interview yesterday for a position at a tech company, and I’m feeling anxious because I haven’t heard back yet. The first interview results came in just two hours after it ended, and I got the initial screening results two days after applying. However, this second interview felt like it didn’t go well, and as a foreigner, I’m unsure about how long it typically takes for American companies to respond. I’ve read that it can vary significantly depending on the size of the company—some might get back to you the same day, while larger corporations could take up to two weeks or more. I’m trying not to stress about it too much, especially since the previous responses were so quick.

I recently graduated and somehow made it through the initial screening for a program manager role, despite having no professional experience and less work history than the position requires. This is my first overseas job interview, and I'm feeling a bit anxious about it. I did exaggerate my work history a little; while I haven't lied outright, the experience I listed mostly comes from achievements during my college years. I'm concerned that the interviewer might think I have actual professional experience when I don't. Should I bring this up during the interview? I want to be honest, but I also don't want to jeopardize my chances.
