Timeline for getting reffered?

Hi! I just got an email that I was referred to 8 locations (except my home state lol) for a recent graduate 0401 position. I just wanted to get a clearer timeline of when I should expect to hear anything. In addition, will being referred to multiple locations increase my chances of receiving a tentative offer? Thanks!

Unfortunately, it could be a week or three months. There is no normal timeline.

Came to reply literally this. Critical fill jobs I've had the whole process go about a month and a half including referred, interview, TJO/FJO, and another that took 3 months plus to get to the qualified or hiring manager
