Message Name: Offer Letter Wait Time
Date Posted: 04/06/2005
Message: I am graduating college and was interviewing with a company of older professionals in a RE/construction advisory firm a month ago. There was a verbal agreement that I would receive an offer. We did not discuss salary, just an outline of their benefits. Two weeks later they were able to sit down with each and discuss the terms of my offer since this would be a new hiring experience from them. Last week they said they were rounding it off and don't worry, I'll receive it soon. I really want to have something in writing soon as well as discuss salary, but the company would just like to put the whole thing together before we do. Am I stuck just waiting it out? After four weeks, would it be annoying to ask a third time about the status of when I can receive it. I feel this is a rediculous amount of time to wait, but it's a good opportunity for me and I don't have other offers as of now.
