Behavioral Presentation

I applied online and got a call back about two weeks later. I interviewed with two department heads and a staff member. The process took about 30 minutes. I got a call to schedule an all-day campus interview. I spoke with at least 15 people and had a writing test for my final hour on campus. The people seemed nice and professional. However, I waited almost a month to find out if I got the job, and I still didn't hear back. I emailed the Director of Public Relations to check on the status, but got no response. I only found out they hired someone by going on their website. It seemed very unprofessional to not let your top candidates know.
