Current Status
I called HR today and was informed that the debrief is scheduled for this evening. I tried calling again twice after 6 PM but didn’t get a response.
Not sure what to expect , maybe I’m overthinking. I just wish HRs would share updates promptly, whatever the result may be.
Will update once I hear back.
