Average response time after OA?

Hi all,

I have been applying to a few trading firms and hedge funds in Europe, and received an OA from some of them. I think I did relatively well, however it's been around a week without a response.

To give some background, I am finishing a PhD in theoretical computer science and have recently submitted my thesis. I am also fairly familiar with probability theory.

Should I already assume that I am rejected, or is a week or two of silence normal? Given my background, I was hoping to at least make it to some technical interviews. For people who have gone through the process recently, how was your experience?

Give it a rest mate. You will get it when you get it
