They have moved the wait from getting the email to assessment. Times are anywhere from 4-6 weeks between the email saying we want you to take the assessment and the actual assessment email. Shorter time to prepare for the HR, but seriously, if you need that extra week to prep for the HR after waiting for an assessment that there’s not much prep for, you are doing it wrong. Not like they are taking the job knowledge test like we used to.
So shorter than what it used to be. That and the slowdown in interviewing they did when the pool was at 6+ months was designed to reduce this wait, because while people were waiting they were taking other jobs and turning down their CJO (also one of the reasons the last hiring manager was fired).
