Note

The email said: "I'm writing to let you know that we need more time: the decision on your case has not yet been made. We are very sorry for the delay." I was expecting a rejection since I didn't get an interview invite, so this is a pleasant surprise. It seems like they're waiting for the current round of interviews before deciding if they need to talk to more candidates.
