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!

Honestly as cheesy as it sounds, having a schedule really helps. I had an 8 month gap and it also took it’s toll on me. Fortunately for me I was studying to take a professional designation exam, slowly skill building, and concentrating on applying for roles that I knew I could fill even if i didn’t intend to stay very long. I definitely could’ve networked better and my time would’ve been shortened but hindsight is 20/20.
Outside of all of this, spending time with loved ones going outside, and being able to reconnect with reality again was invaluable to me. I left an unfulfilling role and started to feel the daily monotony get to me, despite the gap I think it was essential for my overall well being in a way.
Be productive. If you are doing an honest 8 hours a day of being productive then it will help you with your confidence. Whether that’s job hunting, chores, exercise, doing community service, it will help. Get a part time night job and swallow your pride, survival is survival. Just don’t sit on your butt most the day playing video games/watching videos, you’re blowing your dopamine which can cause you to feel down. If you need help getting ideas and getting a schedule, chat gtp can help with keeping you focused and keep the tasks rolling.
