Guys , whoever is interviewing and planning to join , do ask project availablity on priority basis before you take decision. On Java front looks like there is some project issue due to recent slowdown in market. My offer was not revised even after agreement with recruiter because of this.

Be patient, what is for you is for you.
You are not wrong, the more candidates you interview the more you have to refer to notes unless someone was a perfect fit
Even then colleagues and other leaders may chime and and want a different candidate.
Keep moving forward… they snooze they loose.
Yeah I just feel the process is wrong. Rather than interview one candidate every few week why not gather all the applications and identify 4-5 candidates to interview together. So comparison is happening in a fair manner.
I am going through this right now. I have a very strong candidate that I want to move forward with, but we need to do our due diligence in interviewing others. Due to scheduling conflicts this will make the process go a couple of weeks. If you are a strong contender I wouldn't worry.
It’s a great fit but when I followed up with HR after 1.5 week of my interview, she said I was the first one the team interviewed and they haven’t had a chance to meet other candidates so she’ll let me know in the upcoming weeks. Is this how it works in industry? My question is wouldn’t they identify 5 candidates and interview all at once so they can make a decision? If they interviewed me first and take 2-3 weeks to interview other candidates wouldn’t they forget about me and not remember how good I was and be more impressed with the latest candidate they interviewed ?

Yea, unfortunately this is normal. But honestly, they are doing nothing wrong. They do need to screen an interview a few candidates in order to ensure they are making the right decision. Though I admit their process can be a bit better. For example, not every candidate you interview needs to make it on to the final round. So not sure what their exact process is. I would just wait and let them come to you now. In the meantime keep applying and interviewing at other places.

With today’s competitive job market, it may not add a lot of pressure on them, unfortunately. Also, a lot of big companies have to follow these strict processes and “due diligence” even if they really like a candidate.
If you’ve already followed up, I would just leave them be. Personally, as a high quality candidate in the market, I don’t have time to wait around, even for a company I like. I wouldn’t let another offer pass me by just because this company wants to take their time. At the end of day, even after their due diligence, they may not even pick you. If it were me, I would take the offer from Firm A. And for Firm B, you snooze you lose buddy lol!
Sometimes that’s not realistic. The business is still running and people have time off and updates are happening all the time. Internal candidates want an opportunity…. just keep moving forward . Don’t let this stop your momentum

^ agree with this, if they extend you an offer that's great! But don't put your search on pause for them
