Received call from POI. Official notification coming the next few days. I was convinced I'd been rejected because of all the previous comments. If you received an interview but haven't heard back yet DO NOT DESPAIR.

No interviews, no results. Waiting to be rejected. PS: three journal publications, highest distinction from a top 50 university plus references from three highly cited professors. Not even got interviewed.
