Hi, I recently appeared for an interview at HDFC Bank. After the selection process, they asked me to fill out a form for background verification where I had to mention my previous employer details and personal information. I submitted my release letter and other required documents. It has already been 15 days, and I have not received any communication from them. I am confused about my status—whether I have been selected or not. Please advise me on this matter.
Thank you.

Do not entertain any anxiety. Since this is the month of April, HRs are usually busy with appraisals, budgetary issues, etc. So, wait for some time and then send them an email. All the best.

No time is right to decide and wait to hear from the interviewers. Fifteen days is a significant amount of time for the candidate to start wondering if they will make it to the interview. I suggest taking a sheet and jotting down the queries you would want to inquire about.
Don't squander much time asking questions; often, people make this mistake. You may want to know the feedback—they might have only a few minutes to wrap up the conversation. Hence, quickly remind the interviewer about your candidature and the status of the position you were interviewed for. If the position is still open, ask if you are still being considered. These steps will definitely help as follow-up procedures without infuriating or consuming much time for both parties.
All the best!

I got a call from HR this time (on 29th April); she asked me to submit my medical fitness report. However, I did not receive the offer letter yet. I am a bit confused about what they are actually doing. They confirmed me, and I have already turned down other job opportunities. Please suggest what I should do.

Ms. Sweta,
Seems like your fortitude is showing amidst the adversity of the situation. Anyway, since you have already turned down other offers, why dwell on those that are now gone?!
They asked you to submit a "Medical Fitness Report," which is not alarming. Don't be confused; if your intention is to pursue a career in banking, you may need to exhibit a bit more patience.
If you still have doubts, reach out to the hiring team and inquire about the progress. Remember, overwhelming thoughts can collide, so try not to let anxiety take over, as it will trouble you for the foreseeable future.

Thanks for your opinion, but the thing is that the conversation was verbal between me and the hiring team. Until I receive an official letter from them, how can I confirm if I am selected? I already resigned from my previous company after getting a call from them that I am selected for "PB sales in HDFC." I decided to resign.
Query: Should I Wait for the Letter or Look for Other Options?
So, I have one query: should I just wait for the letter or look for other options?

HDFC Bank is doing the same thing with me. I submitted all the documents on 8th August 2014. However, now they are saying that a psychometric test is pending for me. I told them that I can clear the test right away, but they are still not giving me the link to the psychometric test. I have already resigned from my last organization and am sitting at home.
I am looking for other opportunities but am not getting a better job offer than HDFC Bank.

Hi, as already shared earlier, the HDFC Bank HR team is trying to provide me with the Offer Letter on time. The salary discussion sheet has been emailed to me, and I have accepted the salary offered. Additionally, as per the email, I was required to specify a date when I can join. I clearly communicated that I am available to join on 8th October. However, I have not yet received the formal date of joining or the location details. I had a conversation with the HR Manager, and he informed me that my Offer Letter is currently in process; therefore, I am patiently waiting.
I hold HDFC Bank in high regard. I am eager to join the organization as soon as possible and demonstrate my value as an asset to the company. I kindly request anyone reading this message to assist me in any way possible, whether through suggestions or connections. I have a family that depends on me, and it is challenging to remain without a job.
I appreciate any support you can provide. Thank you.

Received an email on 17th November saying "Extend Offer." It included the salary, grade, and profile details. The email also mentioned that this is not the final offer letter, which will be provided after receiving a fitness certificate.

Can someone tell me when the final offer will be given?
