Don’t know what to make of a long interviewing process
I had a screening interview with a HM at Microsoft. The HM was very upfront and said that they are planning to take a long time to hire the right person because is a new position/department. He said this before we started our conversation. He also said he was going to be out the following week.
I felt very confident right after the interview, but as 2 weeks have gone by, I can’t stop thinking that the HM to told me that because I didn’t ace my interview. I keep wondering if the HM said that because he is not sure of moving me forward and wanted to talk to other people and they are already moving forward with them.
Have you have a similar experience? Did they come back and give you a second interview or eventually just got the automated rejection email?
Thanks

I interviewed with two different companies this week, if they move me forward, I will reach out to the HM because the Microsoft job is still my first choice.
