Had 3-4 rounds of interview which went well. Last round was more of a discussion and I was very hopeful of an offer but in the end they never came back. When I called the HR after 3 weeks , she said she has not heard a decision but suggested to not wait even though my feedback was positive . Seemed like an internal hiring in the end
