Still waiting on an offer from a final round in February. Recruiter called me after the final round and said they wanted to extend an offer but a covid hiring freeze had just been put in place and she'd follow up with me once it was lifted. Radio silence since then.

Well I interviewed for a role on March 10th, then they delayed decisions due to covid, then they had a hiring freeze until June 1st. Now they've called me again to ask if I'm still interested, and I said yes, but still waiting for another call to schedule interviews.

Have been interviewing for a role for 6-7 weeks now

Have been interviewing for a role since March...lol

Interviewed for a role in October of last year, and was given an offer with a March start (new group being formed in Q1). Covid caused entire group to be put on hold. Have check-ins every three weeks to see where we are at. Same story every time: "climate isn't right yet"

Early March:networking and asked to apply early April: first rounds Two weeks later: “you are our top choice I’m ready to give offers next week” Four weeks later: this is on pause or going to be canceled Last week: we really like you but we have to cancel this position
