Gave initial call with talent acquisition almost a month ago. Still no update 😭

As the title says, I still haven’t heard back from them. I submitted this application for associate PM at this well known Fintech company through a referral and the referrer is still in touch but not hiring team. The initial call went good and update on workday still shows ā€œunder reviewā€ (used to be ā€œapplication receivedā€) even though it’s been a month. I’ve sent follow up emails but received no response. About a week back, I’ve asked the referrer if they got any update to which they responded that they haven’t gotten any update and the team didn’t select the candidate for the next round with the HR. I’m just frustrated with everything going on and I’ve been unemployed for almost a year. I HATE THE SILENCE. Is this normal for such big companies to have slow hiring or even ghosting?😭
