Hi All,

I just sent an application yesterday regarding the internship position. How long do they need to assess my application? In other words, how long am i suppose to wait for a reply?

Do they call you or email you? What if i fail? Do they contact me telling me i have failed?



Thanks

If you fail they don't call you. It should take about a month.

Well mainly because you sound desperate. If you don't get called in a month, you didn't get it. If you call them you just waste their time. If they are really interested they will call you.

desperate.. maybe... but if u didnt get it then they dont call u and u dont call them, u r the one on the losing side for being unsure what their decision is.. u call them then they tell u they not interested then u move on with your life dont have to worry about them anymore... if they r interested and u call them, they will have better impression that u are keen on this job...and its not like i ask him to call the company every hour or every day..one phone call doesnt make u desperate

I agree that you should call. I had a friend wanting to join KPMG, they didn't call so she called instead, and they offered her an interview smile.gif So just call if they don't call you, you've got nothing to lose, and like f4tE said, it makes you seem more interested.

It shows that you are taking initiative too! For now, you probably want to call up just to find out how long it usually takes for them to get back to the applicants.

Do not put all your eggs of hope into one bucket. They might not offer a lot of position for internship.

Try to spend the efforts on seeking and applying more companies, broaden up your chances. During time like this it wont be easy to get an internship.

Should be okay to call what. Better still, they'll think you're keen and taking initiative to pursue them. Call also a few minutes only mar, won't annoy them. After all, it's their job.

If they want u, they will call u right away after u submitted ur application form.
Right away means same day or 1,2 days after u submitted.
But normally within 1 week lar.
And I hate talking to the Accenture helpdesk girls. To be exact the indian girls!!!! Give false information about interview time and venue and very rude!

p/s: Im not racist, if other races did the same thing i will mention it here too.
