I just got rejected from a job that I interviewed for half a year… VP level investment role. I interviewed for about 7-8 rounds, and the hiring firm shifted their focus for hiring. Is this normal in the job market now? How do people think about getting a new job these days?

I'm so sorry to hear this, but it's pretty normal in this climate.

That’s insane. 7 rounds???

I don’t know if it’s “normal,” but it does seem more common now for companies to drag processes out and then change direction. At that level, I’d try not to see it as a reflection of you. It sounds more like the firm’s priorities shifted than anything you did wrong.
