RealSelf Advisor interview questions

I had my first interview with a recruiter which went well. Standard questions regarding my experience and how it related to the job I was interviewing for. The next week, I had an interview with the woman who would be my manager and from my perspective, we had a great conversation which made me pretty excited about the position. I heard back from the recruiter the following day who told me that “the feedback from X was very positive” and that they discussed me being a “great candidate” for a role they were opening in a few weeks and asked if I would be willing to wait. I immediately replied that I was very interested and would be fine with waiting. I followed up with the recruiter two weeks later asking if there was any update she could share. No response. I then followed up a week later politely asking if there any been any developments. No response. I emailed a week later. No response. Now, I understand that things can change, but the fact that I couldn’t even get a response saying they were no longer interested was pretty discouraging because she asked if I would be willing to wait while they “iron out details.” During those two weeks, I stopped looking for a job (was recently laid off) because I thought this was the one and I wasn’t interested in anything else. Totally my fault but I just feel like after two interviews that went well, along with the positive feedback, that I could at least get a reply saying something! The only thing I can think of was that my thank you note was too eager? I have no idea. Obviously it wasn’t meant to be. Their loss!
