I was invited to an interview last month, but it was cancelled after the hiring manager was laid off. It's been two weeks, and the job is still posted. I really want this job. Can I reach out to the company directly, or does the recruiter's involvement make that messy? Also, if they still need someone, why hasn't the company reached out to me by now? Is it a red flag or just chaos?

No harm in reaching out and finding what the situation is.

Agree with this

A manager being laid off suggests that either the entire team was let go or some kind of re-org happened, and they just forgot or haven't gotten around to unposting the job from whatever board it's on. But sure, you should try to contact them and see.

My fiancé will NOT stop talking about her ex. After I found out they were texting arguing she justified it by saying it was about the dogs and not them.

I try to bring it up and I get dismantled for being too mean and making “false accusations.” How much more obvious can it be?
