I had an interview 2 weeks ago as of me typing this, I followed up by email beginning of this week and got the following reply back
"MY NAME,
Thank you for reaching out,
We are still in the interview process and fielding other applicants. We will be in touch with you in the coming weeks.
Thank you,
INTERVIEWER"
I don’t think I’ve ever heard “in the coming weeks”, I just hoped I’m not fucked. I thought the interview went very well.
It means you’re still in consideration.
I know when I’ve hired in the past, if I like the first person I interview I still try to interview at least one more person so I actually have a choice. If I don’t like someone I’ll immediately let them know.
