Yes. It's early in the process. At my firm, if someone blew away their CB, they will get an offer right away. If they sucked, then they are getting dinged. And if they were just "good" or even a little "above average," they're getting put on hold until we interview more people to compare them with (and check the offer acceptance rates).

How many days have passed? Often, firms will let the interviewer do it on their own schedule. However, sometimes the firm's recruiting committee meets and they make all CB's at once. Whether you're screwed or not depends on how this particular firm does it.

Hiring decisions almost always pass through a hiring committee which meets once a week during hiring season. There is a tiny chance that the committee met on Thursday afternoon while you were still interviewing (but after your friend was done), and they considered his candidacy last week while yours wouldnt be considered until next Thursday afternoon. But that's your only hope. Otherwise, your ding is in the mail.

For the offer to go out Friday, there is a reasonably strong chance the committee met on Thursday.

You were not done with interviews on Thursday, so the committee could not have considered you.

You have no way of knowing. Chill. Stop fucking talking to people about it.

this exact situation happened to me, both my friend and I ended up with offers and worked together at the firm.

after the cb they take you to lunch, after his lunch they called him back up to the office and gave him an offer.

my cb was the next day, one of the associates who took me to lunch was like uhh let me call the office and see whats up (I thought that was a great sign) then he said oh no have a nice day and good luck..to which i started shitting my pants.

anyway for a couple of days i was freaking out. they called me at the end of the next week with the offer. so i understand you freaking out but dont read too much into it.
