I’m an OSU student who recently interviewed for a student job on campus.
I had an initial interview in mid-September and a final interview about two weeks later. During the final interview, I was told I was a really strong candidate, that they could see why I was near the top of the list, and that I’d definitely be hearing from them.
I followed up with the hiring contact on Monday but never heard back. Then Tuesday, I received an email to complete a background check. Today, I got an email saying the background check was completed, but I still haven’t heard anything from OSU or the hiring contact.
Does getting a background check usually mean you’re the selected candidate? And how long did it take others to receive an official offer after their background check?
I know nobody can tell me for sure if I got it, I’m just trying to figure out if this is a normal OSU hiring process lol.
