I understand this bowl is for Exit Opportunities but I’ve been seeing great career advice in general ... In March I interviewed for a VP level role with a well known global agency, I met the entire executive suite virtually . I haven’t heard anything since then, on LinkedIn I see they have posted the role public...is this a clear sign that they are not interested in me as a contender? It’s not worth following up, right?

Typically, I would say not worth. But considering this was right around when the pandemic hit, it is possible that they had a hiring freeze or something, wouldn’t hurt to ask!

Always worth following up. What is there to lose?

If you haven't had any communication with them in 6 months, then I wouldn't get your hopes up. But it only takes a few minutes to follow-up.

I would send an email today. Then if nothing, follow-up with a call on Wed (bc of the holiday weekend). Then if no response, final email follow up on Mon.

At least then you have closure.

Don't give yourself an "F" before you take the test. If you're still interested, let them know.

I have updated the resume since - though still wondering if there's anything else I can do to strengthen my case. Thank you in advance for any advice.
