A few candidates have experienced longer or inconsistent communication, sometimes waiting weeks for follow-up or even being ghosted after progressing through early stages. xpress your enthusiasm, but inquire politely about the process: “Could you walk me through what the next steps might look like and a general timeline for them?” Be ready for different formats—stay flexible for video calls, role plays, and thoughtful conversations. Send a polite follow-up if you don’t hear back in the expected time frame—professional yet friendly.
