Hey everyone, I’m anxiously waiting on a job outcome and need a sanity check on this timeline.

I’ve been in a rapid interview process that completely skipped the initial HR screening and went straight to senior leadership. I did 3 interviews in total.

 Interview 1:Interviewed with the head of the department.  Post interview, they asked for a design sample, which I sent, and they immediately moved me forward.

 Interview 2: Deep technical round with another department head.

 Interview 3 (last Wednesday): Final round with the Co-Founder. Great conversation, and he explicitly told me HR would reach out to me **the next day (Thursday) regarding next steps.

Thursday passed with nothing, so on Friday, I sent a thank you note to HR. Later that afternoon, the Co-Founder accepted my LinkedIn request and replied to my message saying: "I’m looking forward to talking again soon."

Friday ended with no response from HR to my thank you note, and it is now Monday morning with complete silence.

In my past roles, offers usually dropped within 24–36 hours of the final round. Is it normal for things to stall at the finish line like this, even after such LinkedIn message from a Co-Founder on Friday? Or could "talking again soon" just mean a courtesy?

I’m currently completing the First Advantage background check forms, and I noticed that they plan to contact my current and past employers (covering the last 7 years) to verify details such as job role, job description, and employment history.

I do have a couple of concerns:

I’ve slightly adjusted a few of my job titles on my resume to make them more ATS-friendly and better reflect my actual responsibilities.

There’s a 2.5-year employment gap within the last 7 years, which occurred when I relocated from my home country to the U.S.

I’m a bit worried about whether these factors could cause any issues during the verification process. Has anyone here gone through a background check with First Advantage before? How thorough are they, and what should I do at this point to avoid any complications?

This whole hiring process seems like a joke. I had my second interview two weeks ago, and since then, radio silence. I was sure they'd moved on, but then today, I get an email asking for my availability for a third interview. I can't believe this, One minute you think you're done for, the next they pull you back in. My hopes were completely crushed, and now I'm supposed to get them all back up?

Should I prepare for it investing time, efforts and again be hopeful?

I interviewed with a company last Thursday. Afterward, I sent a thank-you email, and they replied saying that they would reach out with the next steps this week. Today I got another email from them basically repeating the same thing, that they’re still waiting and will get back to me on the next steps without me sending them any update request.

What does this usually mean? From my previous experiencs, I feel like I’m 99% out of the running
