So, I applied for a job as a Creative Services Producer (Shoot and edit local commercials and promos) with a local tv station in town.  I currently work as a newscast director for their competitor, but only part time.  I was recently laid off from a job that is pretty similar this, so I have experience with the work.  

Anyway, I there had been an opening for this job about a year and a half ago and I had made it to the final round of interviews.  Manager really like my work ethic, tenacity, and the fact I was the only one who wore a suit to the interview (People don't dress up for these things anymore?)  

When the job opened up again I jumped at the chance and when interviewed with the manager, he remembered when we interviewed almost two years ago.   He told me that the pay would be much for this market and I told him that the opportunity and experience meant a lot more to me than the money.  I got a call a few days after the interview and was told there was an internal applicant and that they were about 90% done with the process and that he was trying to get everything wrapped up before he went on vacation.  

Last Monday night I got an email from him asking if I was still interested in the position and that things had changed with their internal applicant, I told him I was (and didn't ask about what had happened with the internal applicant).  If he's getting in touch with me while he's on vacation, I'm hoping that's a good sign.  

Anyone else been through this, I don't know how to read this situation.
