Unless things have changed drastically in the last couple of years, hiring
managers deal with headhunters directly and almost never deal directly with
the candidate. even if the company wanted you back for a second interview,
you would have gotten that information from the headhunter, not from the
hiring manager.
Hope your search yields better results soon.
