I am currently finishing school in the spring and have started looking at jobs.
I have on informal offer. ie: after interviewing he emailed me stating that he would like to offer me a job and if I accept he will have HR send out a formal offer. I haven't said yes or no yet.
I also have went through the interview process with another company who IMO is slightly more desirable then the company who already offered me a job. The two jobs are basically identical just with different companies.
The problem is I did my second interview/field trip with them on January 7-9. During the interview they said they would get back to me within 2 weeks, "could me more, could be less".
I have emailed the recruiter twice. Once after 3 weeks, and again last night now that it is coming up to 4 weeks.
I did however get an email from my old boss saying that he was called for a reference last week, and that it sounded positive.
My question would be, how long should I wait before calling the recruiter? He hasn't answered any of my emails, and if I am not offered this job I will gladly take job #1.
