as long as they said it's still in processing, i guess its good news! yea its quite a lengthy process so cant say for sure.

i had my interview 2 months ago and everything seemed good during the interview. Interviewers told me to expect a reply within 2 weeks, and check with HR if i needed an update.

2 weeks later, i emailed HR to check and got a generic reply saying they were still processing, which i (mistakenly) took as a negative sign.

Another 2 weeks later (total 4 weeks after interview) they surprised me with a call and an offer, saying they just finished all the interviews!

dont be too discouraged... if you're really keen on this job, keep checking in with HR every now and then...

Sorry for posting a stupid question but where do you get the email of the HR person?

May I ask which agency is that?

I have 8 jobs in process but no call for interviews at all. This is so frustrating T_T

GT. are you having similar experience?

Similar experience, mine is with a Ministry and HR updated saying still processing after completing interview due to high volume of applications and to give them more time.. they say will try expedite and update me. Guess it's a really lengthy process

I have 6 jobs in process, 3 called for interviews. But the written tests and presentations are making me dread applying for ministries and stat boards.

The waiting time is killing me!

HR also told me the same thing, said will check with the panel and get back to me. but never get back at all. the wait is really torturing..

How long did it take for them to call you for interview after the application deadline?

Long waiting time
 

Yeah interested to know this as well. I have a 'in process' for a job i applied 1 month ago and a 'shortlisted' for a job i applied almost 3 weeks back. Till now not a single call or email for interview. The other applications that were either 'submitted' or 'unsuccessful', i get it cuz it is quite obvious that i either failed or HR hasn't start processing the applications yet. But the 'in process' and 'shortlisted' ones really doesn't make sense to be so long.
I saw a lot of post on the long waiting time. Not sure if it is particularly from that small group of min/sb.
