just went to an interview and have a question!

Hi, guys! I just went to a job interview and everything went pretty well as far as I can see. The nurse manager supposed to interview me was not there so the educator and another nurse manager interviewed me. At the end, the educator said their HR would call my hospital for references and I would probably hear back in a week and half. She asked if my manager knew if I was looking for a new job, and she also said she doesn't decide whether they hire me or not. I am not sure how the hiring process work, but this is the first time I heard from a interviewer that he/she doesn't get to make the decision. Is it a bad sign? This is my dream job. Please help if you know anything! Thank you!

    The decision to extend an offer or not rests with the manager with the open position. While others may participate in the interview and have input, it truly does come down to one person. As an educator, I can participate in an interview and provide feedback to the manager, but I cannot extend an offer. Probably not the best thing that the nurse manager with the open position was not able to attend the interview, but it's not unheard of- there are actutally 4 specialty coordinators in my OR (similar to an assistant nurse manager role) who report to the nurse manager. They work as a team when it comes to interviews- if someone is unavailable (needs to assist someone in a surgery/assist during an emergency/etc), another will step in.

    Thank you for explaining this to me! I will just wait patiently now I guess.
