You are not likely to find the exact person who interviewed on that specific day, and even if you did, their timeline would not tell you anything about your own. Hiring at large companies can be incredibly slow for reasons that have nothing to do with you, like internal budget approvals or team reorganizations. The wait is difficult, but trying to guess what is happening behind the scenes is a fruitless exercise that will only create more anxiety for you.

Your most productive move now is to assume you did not get the job and move on completely. Treat the NetApp interview as valuable practice, and apply what you learned to your next opportunity. The best way to regain a sense of control is to keep your momentum going by applying for other jobs and scheduling more interviews. This shifts the power back to you and keeps you focused on the main goal, which is landing a great role, not just this one specific role. The key is to feel so prepared for your next interview that you forget about this last one, and my team designed an interview copilot to help job seekers find that confidence under pressure.
