When i called HR previously, she informed me that I was one of the shortlisted candidates and there was a few candidates. But there's only 1 position available. So I would like to check how does it works? They will pick top 2/3 candidates and do reference checks for all and offer only to their top choice? HR didn't state why she needs 2 - 3 weeks to come back to me after the reference checks. At this point in time, i'm just wondering what are my chances for this role.
Anyone can advise?
Thank you.

Some companies will do reference checks before they make their decision. So saying it takes 1 week to make a reference check, then if they call you within 2 weeks then mayb you're the top candidate, and 3 weeks maybe because the top rejected the position.
