Final interview stage ghosting

I’ve been on the job hunt as a MM and Enterprise Account Executive for a couple of months now. I initially had a verbal offer at a fintech that was rescinded due to a new VP joining and pausing all hiring, resulting in the role being completely shelved.

More recently, I finished a final round interview with a CEO at another fintech company on a Friday. I thought it went well and received good feedback from the team throughout the entire process. However, it’s been over a full week with no response and I’m wondering how to not lose this deal.

I sent a followup shortly after the interview thanking the team, reiterating my skill set and fit for the role, and emphasizing my excitement in working with the team. Mid week I sent a followup asking for any updates or visibility on the role, and today I sent another email. I also connected with one of the sales directors I previously met with and pinged him on LinkedIn with no response.

I was really excited for this role and would be pretty bummed to have this one fall through. What else can I do, and what could be resulting in this sudden communication drop off at the final stages ?
