EEO requires universities to see all candidates before they can make offers. If they have multiple lines, they can offer early. However, there is a huge signaling game going on where the University makes an early offer to candidate A and B through D go elsewhere. Consequently, the optimal decision is for the University to wait until they have seen all candidates prior to offering.Furthermore, early offers result in the candidate who received the offer hoarding it for eternity. Every year there is some Ass-hat or Diva that gets three to four offers and holds them for 40 days screwing everyone else in the market.
In short, it is by law that they wait until the end. If there is flexibility, it is no optimal to offer early.

Can you please elaborate?

I also heard that ESMT, which has essentially been funding the PhD program in the last years, is starting to lose patience and looking elsewhere. -

If you are not interested in research but instead in nightlife, then I fully agree. Otherwise clearly not.

Whoever is the best candidate and/or female.
Any rumors about the W1 Heidelberg that's been opened recently? Anyone who is likely to apply and get it?
Whoever is the best candidate.
not true. 'diverse' and 'other' strongly underrepresented at Heidelberg. will get the if equal qualification.
