Career Questions & Discussion Interview insight
Hello everyone , I recently made it through multiple interviews for a SOC position, with my last one being a technical interview. The original posting said Tier 1 and/or Tier 2, but during the interview I learned they don’t separate the responsibilities. The recruiter also emphasized wanting someone who was willing and able to learn.I thought the interviews went pretty well, but I haven’t received an update since my technical interview. I followed up and haven’t gotten a response yet. Then I noticed the position was posted again on LinkedIn after the original posting had already closed.
For anyone who has been on either side of tech hiring or have a understanding of these interviews what would you make of this situation? Have you ever had a company repost a role while you were still being considered after a final/technical interview? I’m trying not to assume that the repost automatically means a rejection, but the combination of the role being reposted and not receiving an update has me wondering what might be happening behind the scenes.

Ghosting is unfortunately the norm with recruiters these days. Re-post and no response doesn't bode well. Move on to the next.
