It's been a few weeks...

I interviewed for a Director of Finance position about three weeks ago. During my second-round interview, they informed me I was among the few candidates to move forward. The Executive Director (the hiring manager) and the Senior Director mentioned that it would take a few weeks to decide as they attended conferences and took vacations.

Now that three weeks have passed, I'm wondering if I should follow up. They knew I wasn't in a rush during the interviews, but I am interested in the position and would accept it if offered. I'm not sure what the best course of action is

    If the parties are back from vacation and conferences, I would exhibit typical follow-up behavior and reach out. In essence, act like you would if you already had the job. Would you reach out to them? Then do it.

    Update: They already made an offer to another candidate.

    I would reach out to let them know you are still interested.
