I am a recent PhD graduate. I interviewed with United Airlines for a job I’m really interested in. The interview seemed to go great, it lasted an hour longer than scheduled and at the end they made the point to insist i would hear back in a couple weeks “regardless of the decision” it’s now been 8 weeks and i have heard no decision. There has been a govt shutdown in those weeks that impacted airlines, I’ve reached out to the recruited 2 times and got the same “I’ll let you know ASAP” response…

I hope you didn't stop pursuing other jobs.

Always helpful to go back with "I have another offer but would prefer working with you" story. If they really want you, they'll start moving quicker.

Let your own ethics determine if you wait until it is the truth, or bluff sooner.

Keep pursuing other opportunities… sounds like there’s something internal that may make the position disappear. Budget cuts or restructuring.
