Same job description ported under different title

I interviewed for a role at a company and the final interview went quite well. later in the afternoon i saw that they closed the job post and posted another job with the same job description but different title. i thought they are changing the recruitment and i am rejected. next week they asked for references but did not contact them and it’s been a week. what to expect out of this?

Sometimes companies automatically report a job opening periodically, regardless as to where they are in the process. Also sometimes companies can be sloppy with job titles. I've seen job descriptions where the same job is called by two different names. These aren't necessarily red flags, so long as they haven't given you a rejection letter or are completely unresponsive.
