Had an interview last Wednesday and still haven't heard back?

I was made redundant in June from a business analyst role in which I worked in for 5 years.
I took a short holiday after that, I have been applying to some jobs after that and have had a few interviews but with no luck.Last month I had an interview for software engineer role on a 18 month contract at my local police station. The manager for the role got back in touch with me a few days after and said that i don't have the exact skills to get started straightaway as it's only for 18 months the role doesn't have much time to be trained up in as it covers a wide range of services, however she told me about an upcoming role in the same team which she feels my skills are more aligned with.Its a similar role and is a 2 year contract so there is more time to learn on the job and it covers less wide projects.She told me that I will need to go through the application and interview process again, but she has asked me to get in touch if I have any questions.The talent acquisition lead/internal recruiter emailed me the link to the role 3 weeks ago and he said 'we have to be fair and advertise this to everyone, but we would really like you to apply for this role' so I applied for it.The job post closed last week, and the interview was 5 days ago. Although we've just had the weekend so I wasn't expecting a response over that time.I thought it went well, it was with the same people as last time. Towards the end they talked a lot about the onboarding process e.g vetting, training and working arrangements. They said they would get in touch with me the next day but I haven't heard anything, is that a bad sign? I've continued to apply for other jobs in the mean time.
