After second interview for federal job, how long does it take to hear back

Op, you might stil be in the running. Understand that everything in Fed HR works thus way and you need to grow a thick skin about it. You never truly know what bureaucratic issues are going on behind the scenes. And you are never out of the running until they tell you so.

Also, be aware that if you get an offer now, your start date still might not be for a while, as the background checks can take some time.
