Final-round response times vary by office, interviewer availability and recruiting process.

Some candidates hear back the same day, while others wait several business days. The delay alone is not a reliable signal of the outcome.

If the recruiter gave you a timeline, use that before interpreting silence.

Once that window has passed, a short professional follow-up is reasonable; avoid repeated messages while the decision is still within the stated timeline.

The logistics check the night before helped more than squeezing in another full mock. That was the part I wish I had understood earlier.
