Had the interview 2 weeks ago, the recruiter called today and gave me positive feedback, but said they need to complete the process with other candidates before making the decision. No rejection yet, but not a good sign of getting the offer?

Bluntly said who knows. They might have offered it to someone else and they’re waiting for them to sign. If they say no, then they’ll hit you up. Or they’re just waiting to finish the process then will hit you up. Either way I’d email the recruiter and ask for an update or a timeline on when expected to hear

I’d run away from this regardless - if they want you they’d make an offer. So right now their actions are saying you could just be a back up. They are probably just dragging the chain. If this is at a smaller firm even more reason to run as you’ll probably work with the people who put you on the back burner

Thanks for the insight. That’s what I thought as well. Anyway I am not going to withdraw now, but will keep looking.

Tell them that you on the brink of accepting a competing offer and your deadline in Friday. Tell them you really like the company and culture but uncertainty during these deadly pandemic times will force you to take the offer in hand unless they come through with an offer by Friday.

Happened to me and I got rejected LOL

My experience has taught me that if you go more than 48 hours without positive traction after any sort of contact, then an offer is not coming.
