The employer is taking a long time to respond?
I went for the interview at a police dispatch job in November of 2018 and heard back from them in the beginning of December they were consider a different applicant and will give them a reasonable amount of time, four days preferably. I have called back in the beginning of January because I have not heard anything back and they told me the applicant refused but are waiting for HR to send them more applicants and will restart the interview process. My question is how long I should wait for this job to decide? I have called once and at the end of the January just to see the status of my applications and no one is sure what is going on.

All you can do is ask for updates and wait and see if they decide to respond.
But until you have signed contracts and have actually started the job, there is no reason to stop searching. There's no sense in pinning all your hopes on one company which hasn't committed to anything.
