I know someone high up at a company that fed my resume through to the exact team I applied for. Had my first screener two weeks ago and haven’t heard back. It’s a large well known brand. Is this normal? Worried I got rejected but I feel like that wouldn’t make sense given I was recommended but c suite and had a good interview IMO. They seemed pretty invested in me and gave me great advice for the next rounds which I haven’t experienced before in interviews. Also, I’ve gotten the feedback that I do perform well during interviews so feel like I would at least get to the hiring manager round.

Feeling a bit discouraged but just need to know if this is normal and if there’s still hope. It’s a role in SPAM (social media, PR, advertising, marketing) keeping it general for privacy sake.

Please help 🚨‼️ I’ve been spiraling on a job and waiting for a decision for the past 7 business days now. Had my final round interview for a larger company early this month and have not heard back yet. I just checked LinkedIn and saw it was reposted three days ago. Does anyone in HR/recruiting know what this means? I see the pros and cons. Pros is they probably haven’t made a decision yet so I’m not being ghosted and didn’t get it quite yet. Cons are they possibly think I’m not good enough and this is opening up the pool to more competitive applicants…

More context is the timing decisions have been very inconsistent. Some rounds I’ve heard back in two weeks, others one day.

Please if you are actually in recruiting let me know if this is a very bad sign or neutral!
