Had 2 excellent rounds of interviews for CD gig. All went very well. They want to interview others before they make a final decision. What to do in the meantime to make them love me most?

Dress up like a plucky little girl, paint yourself bronze and stand outside their office. Even if the agency you’re talking to isn’t McCann, this a dignified move that works every time.

There is no rhyme or reason to the recruiting process anymore. Sometimes they love you but some force within the agency or holding company or HR department is requesting to see more options.

Random, but valid/persistent thought.

How can I get over this feeling? I'm over the whole "stand in the line of fire to prove how good I am" bs. Any recommendations for getting over this or possible industries to pivot into to avoid bs interview processes and ghosting?

I had a first interview last Tuesday with Amazon, which I think went well, although I still haven't heard back 6 days later and then got an OOO annual leave msg and a no response when I chased up the named colleague today. Is this typical behaviour others have experienced when dealing with the big tech company recruiters? I found Google and Facebook recruiters to be efficient and TikTok so-so, if not a little slow, but 6 days+ seems poor.
