IR position

Hi! I applied about a month ago as an internal applicant at my hospital for an IR nursing position (currently in ICU) but I have not received any contact from the hiring manager regarding an interview. HR said my info was sent to the hiring manager a day or two after I applied. The position just closed for applicants last week. I feel like a month is a long time to not have heard anything but I’m not sure if that’s how long it normally takes for this  department, especially being under staffed right now. Just curious if anyone else has experienced a lengthy waiting period like this before getting an interview.

    Yes! I have. It is nerve wracking. The longest wait I had for a job was a government position that took ( if I remember correctly) about nine months. I had a friend who waited four months for a second interview for a regular non- governmental nursing job.

    It may not be about you. There are several things that can delay finalization. Background checks, someone in HR is on vacation (or got fired, which happened at one place I applied for) - so many possibilities.

    I think it can't hurt to ask HR where you are in the process.

    If it's internal, you may not have been selected moving forward (there may be an internal candidate with experience, or an external, for that matter). Nowadays, to avoid confrontational situations, some places don't notify, although I think it makes the situation worse. I'd just ask HR where they are in the process of filling that position
