I'm really keen on the private hospital job, and I really think my interview went well, but it has been 2-3 weeks and I've not gotten any replies from either the HR or job agency.

I know everyone claims the job market is slow at year-end (ie. less jobs available, with the end of financial year budgeting etc.). What are the chances of the company hiring new staff at year-end with all above factors? I called up the job agency 2 weeks after and she told me that the company has not gotten back to her about me, and that they are probably still in the interview process. She has been told of some candidates' rejection from the company, so she said that no worries, I am still being considered by the company.

I know I should continue my job searching and application, but I would think that I have already sent countless of applications to various hospitals and now I'm not sure whether there are any positions left to be applied for. -.- This aspect makes me feel like they are all not interested in taking me in...
You only applied to hospitals? Why not broaden your job hunt by applying to other jobs e.g. private companies?
