I have had that happen SO many times. I sometimes think they say it because it is true at the time but then they continue to do interviews and maybe find someone better. However, I could be wrong. Either way its not fair to candidates to just ghost.
Was this an internal or external recruiter? An internal recruiter shouldn’t be saying that, while an external recruiter wants to encourage you to stop interviewing elsewhere from fear of you finding a job without them.
I’d reach out if its been more than a week. You have nothing to lose.
I would be sending a follow-up email in that position. Doesn’t hurt anything and will let you know where you stand. I take all of the ‘top candidate’ and general positivity with a grain of salt. Even if they do mean it at the time, no telling who else they are talking to.
