Getting anxious about scheduled update call after final round interview

So I had a final round interview last week and was told I'd hear back this week with an update, well the recruiter reached out today but it was only to schedule an update with the hiring manager for next week. I feel like its going to be a rejection call, I'm getting flashbacks to the last couple rejection calls I've gotten. I've been very anxious this whole week and now I'm annoyed that I'll have to wait til next week. I know its out of my control and I should just move on and continue applying for other roles but its definitely easier said than done...

Oof, that's a tough waiting game. Yeah, could be a mix of things - maybe they need more info or approvals. Meanwhile, keep spreading those nets with apps elsewhere. Always helps to have options ready!

In the exact same position. When I was told I was soo annoyed. They told me hiring manager has gone on holiday and will be back on the Monday
