I nailed an interview at Rockstar about 3 months ago but still havent been hired. The lead that recruited me said they're just waiting on approval from the NY office to officially hire me. I understand these things take time/managing budget etc but this wait is killing me. I know the game industry is infamously slow with stuff like this but I didnt expect this long of a wait.
Start having conversations around comp, don’t wait around to have your time wasted in the end.
It took me about 5 months to get in Rockstar. They're slow. Don't sweat it and check with the recruiter weekly.
That's kinda what I figured but I didnt want to check in too often and come off as an impatient pain in the ass lol.
I usually hit Monday afternoon when I checked. Weekends blast people's memory. You won't seem annoying.
Check in with recruiter?
Ive checked in with him twice last time was about a month ago and he said they're still waiting on NY but they arent interviewing anyone else and want to hire me etc.
What role are you up for? I doubt the recruiter would be dishonest if he said still waiting.
