Any firms experiencing a hiring freeze?

Are any firms experiencing a hiring freeze? A few firms contacted me a month ago to apply. I applied and didn't get any word back. This was before headlines started coming out that layoffs were happening. I'm just curious if this is why they went radio silent.

I just was in contact with someone for a job referral today for BofA. He never mentioned a hiring freeze, but he may not have known.
