Finished final round interviews and got notified I moved onto the final step - references. Is it safe to think I’m the only one at this step? Or is there typically multiple candidates still considered

They should make you an offer first before you allow them to run your references. References should be just a check mark.

Why bug your references if the offer is subpar?

Which one would you take? Should I exit and never look back?
