I feel your pain, and its a tough spot.

One thing when talking to employers is that they're especially worried about the hire right now because of the costs of onboarding.

So if they're paying an intermediate level pay, for someone senior, they're worried that they'll be on the clock and when the market turns they'll quickly lose that person to higher pay or a better skill to requirement match.

The second piece about the roles staying open, its become a fishing exercise for them and a certain amount of paralysis has set it.

I'm not excusing their process of behavior, but getting to interviews and getting an offer are like walking a tightrope over the Niagara Falls with 200 other people on the same tightrope.
