One thing to consider is if you are stepping into the role and starting from scratch, or will you be able to immediately bring help to the company?
If no training or minimal training is required to get you acclimated, they might wait to bring you on board until they forecast 6 months to 1 year of work for the position you are applying for. Otherwise they may have to bring you on earlier to get you trained.
Add to that, are you out of a job right now, or are you looking for a change of scenery and this hire is not something that you need to immediately happen?
If you are not out of a job or entertaining other offers, it does not require them to force the hiring process to move faster. So ultimately, due to you taking a passive approach, the hiring company is doing the same as well.

Rick, I would be stepping into a role that would require no training. It's a role that was recently vacated and I could move right on in. Also, I'm presently employed but my job will be eliminated in 3 months. The prospective employer in this case has no knowledge of any of that.
I know for a fact they haven't filled the position. I have a feeling that, because they knew the previous employee was leaving soon, they made plans for a co-worker to fill in until they could hire someone. They may actually be testing this employee to see if they would fit and promote from within.
That or they just think I suck.
