Would Target respond after a 2nd interview on the weekends? I'm getting quite worried, and I don't know when or if I should respond

Hello, I'm getting quite worried after my 2nd interview for Target. I thought it went well, and we sort of talked like we were friends. They said that I should hear back from them in a few hours or soon; however, it's been a few days after that. I've heard that after a 2nd interview, from other people at Target, if they want you, then they hire you on the spot after that. My application for Target Careers says still in progress, but during the interview, there was something wrong with the job I applied to, and if I were to be hired, it would be this other one, but it still has the old job there so I'm not sure if I should still track it or not, since it would be inaccurate to what I'm applying to. Do you guys know what I should do? Also, I hear that they ghost you sometimes, so I'd appreciate advice, please.

I've also heard about employers ghosting interviewees and think it's incredibly rude.

You could call the store and ask to speak to HR, say that you're just wondering if you could get an update.

HR might not be there on the weekends but can always call and ask ive seen plenty of instances where they say they will do something and dont. I say give it till monday and if you dont hear back call the store. If they were going to say no to hiring you they would of sent an email saying so so chances are they are just delayed for one reason or another

Thanks, this reassures me a bit. I tried my best during the interview. I tried to dress properly and make myself look like I already worked there (which may have been a cocky move looking back, though that wasn’t my intention). I also said “thank you” and tried to be as polite as possible. I made sure to tell them that I have a lot of availability, can work weekends, and that I live very close, I can walk there in under 5 minutes and drive there in under 1.

The main thing I’m concerned about is that I asked them to repeat questions a couple of times, stumbled a little on some answers, and feel like I could have answered some things better. I also asked several questions at the end, but some of them had awkward grammar, such as: “What qualifications do I have that have you concerned?” and “What is the most challenging part of this role, and what can I do to do well?”

I’m not sure if that makes me look unknowledgeable. I’m just really nervous because this was my first real interview besides the HireVue one they had me do before, and I don’t really know what to expect.
