Faced this weird behaviour from Optum recently. Gave interview for Data Scientist position. HR said feedback is positive. Asked for documents. It's been month now since I have shared the documents. I have no update on the offer. Today I called HR, she called me back saying the position is on hold due to recalibration in team, She has shared interview feedbacks to other teams and will get back to me in couple of days. I am clueless now. My last working day is approaching (In a month). Any Help??

I would follow up the next day to inquire from the recruiter what the organizations next steps are.
Years ago, at the manager level, I got into the habit of sending a thank you note with recap message the same day or the very next day after speaking with a recruiter
Even if I didn’t get the role, it seemed to serve me well because it was something that opened up the possibility of adding the Recruiter to my network
The thank you -recap message made it feel less awkward for me to follow up on the role. I would typically do that about a week or two later unless I knew the hiring timeline. In that case, I would adjust my timing
