After submitting my resume for the Global Finance and Business Management full time position at JP Morgan (my dream job!), I got a HireVue invite the next day! However, I completed it 9 days ago and still have no response....
When do we get a response in average, and after how much time does it mean I probably am not getting an offer to continue?
Thanks!

That's just the way it goes these days. The process of job searching has been broken for a while, and it seems like now everything is just paused anyway. So the rejections get fired off automatically. Seems like the word of the year will be "uncertainty," and that's all you hear when people talk business or the economy. Until businesses can plan around the trade war no one wants to take on any extra labor costs.
My secret is never spending time on them. I always submit the same résumé and cover letter, no matter the job. I keep it generic and all about me, not the employer. It's easier to personalize that way. Plus if I get rejected, at least it didn't take a bunch of time.
This is the way
It’s frustrating, but automation is the norm now. Focus on roles where you have a referral or inside contact.
