I had an interview last week. One of my professors said that he got an email asking him to write a reference about me. What can it mean? I don't want to get my hopes up. Is there a submission deadline?
IsItFriday? It depends on who you ask. I think there are two possible answers.

1. There is no deadline, but it would be best if the reference is completed ASAP.

2. There is a deadline, and the deadline is NOW.

Either way, speed should be valued over content. There is no benefit in taking a week, and agonizing over wording.

lalaland Thanks for getting back to me. If my professor didn't tell me about the email, I would not think of asking my other referees to check their emails.

lalaland Is the reference email just a procedure that all interviewed candidates get, or does it mean a potential tentative offer?

IsItFriday? HInt - I told you to renew your tourist passport and driver's license.

There are no guarantees in life, but there is a high probability that you will get an offer. The offer may take weeks to arrive.

lalaland I know I am probably having too much going through my mind now. Thank you for taking time to get back to me!
