Hi, I recently interviewed at a large company for a mid-senior level role. Feedback seemed positive, but it's hard to tell what's genuine vs what's polite. Both myself and the hiring manager were flown onsite for the interview (he's in the process of relocating to the site; he flew to the site and then back to his current home within 72-96 hrs). Two weeks after the onsite, I reached out to the recruiter to reiterate my interest. They replied the same day that they didn't have a decision yet, and that they should have an update next week. Today, they reposted the role, but the End Date/last date to apply is in three days. Before this, the role was inaccessible on the company's page; they took it down around the time my initial interviews started. The role is only posted on their website; it hasn't been reposted on other job boards. What's happening here?
