Radio Silence after phone screens

I was recently interviewing for an analyst position at a regional MM/BB office. I had a couple phone screens and haven't heard anything from them for the past 2 weeks. I sent them an email but got not response. I was wondering what the best way to handle the situation would be.

Hard to say unless you're plugged into the process. I had one last year where I was invited to the superday after assuming I'd been dinged due to three weeks with no word. I found out I was wrong when I touched base with one of my contacts in the group who let me know that they were planning on inviting me out.

There's a lot of reasons. Sometimes they can have a fire drill that makes them worry less about recruiting, other times it can take a few weeks to get around to visiting all their on campus recruiting locations.

 

This usually means you were dropped. This is a typical industry practice. That being said, I had this happen with the caveat of them letting me know they would reach out soon. I received a superday as a result.

How did they last respond?

I don't care who your dad is
 

The last communication I had with them was the last phone screen. Was very rushed so there was no time for me to ask about the timeline.
