How long to hear back from interview

So i have been working on a oncology floor for almost 3 years. I have always wanted to do pediatric oncology and shadowed on their floor as a new grad. I also met a nurse that works on the floor i want to work on. I currently go to grad school full time and work part-time as my current position.

Well, i had a interview on the pediatric floor in a hospital that is within the same system as my current one. THerefore, it would be considered a transfer. After my interview with the managers they apparently contacted my manager about me transferring and he said he would not let anyone go until the first of the year due to everyone quitting. (he sucks as a manager) THis basically could affect them hiring me and my other coworker who also interviewed.

Well I still havnt heard from the recruiter and its been 2 weeks. I called her last week and she said they are still deciding. On a side note, the girl i met on the floor before sent me a text last week saying congrats (thinking they already offered it to me) and that her manager told her that they are hiring me and im starting in dec and that there was issues with my present position but it was worked out. (that was a week ago). I left a message to check in with the recruiter yesterday and still have not heard anything. Did my manager mess things up?? This is so frustrating. I would seriously put in my 2 weeks notice if they offered it to me and he was preventing the transfer but they still have not offered anything. Should i just move on and look at other hospitals?
