A recruiter reached out to me directly on LinkedIn and asked me to meet and interview with the team. I had 7 phone interviews with team members around the country for a senior position, two of which were with recruiters. I was told I was a strong candidate and would hear back about a decision (between myself and one other person). I didn't receive any communication for a week so reached out for a status update. The recruiter promised follow up within the coming week. That was about 2 months ago. I gave up and moved on to another offer.
