Ill_State9479's journey

I had my final interview for a federal job on October 28, and it's now been 10 business days without any updates. The conversation with the panel and the hiring manager went really well, and they mentioned that the process can be slow, especially since the admin person coordinating my interviews was on leave until the following Tuesday. I followed up a week after the interview, but still no response. I'm feeling anxious about whether I got the job or not. This waiting game is really frustrating.
