I've applied a SB job recently and the close date has passed two weeks already. In the auto-reply email, it stated "If you are shortlisted for an interview, we will be in touch with you within 8 weeks with more information. In the meantime, please track the status of your application on Careers@Gov."

No call no email....Status still shows submitted.....if the position is readily available, why they need 8 weeks to just call a person for interview??
