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!

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.
Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.
JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
Is it easy for engineers to become TPMs?
Definitely using both of these.

Just because he only has a diploma doesn't mean he "knows nothing". That's a mighty big assumption. Some of the best software engineers I've known in over 30 years in the industry had no formal qualifications, and some of the most inept were PhD's. Having a degree is no guarantee as to practical ability in the real world. And how do you even know what's actually on his resume? Also, management usually requires very different skills to being an IC, it's very common for a engineering manager (not talking a Tech Lead which is actually a different role) to be managing people with more qualifications, engineering experience and often higher total comp than themselves.
I understand your concern, but how would you lead a team of data scientists, data engineers and data analysts if you don't even know what an API is. He once asked in a team meeting if we could store our big data in an API.
Is there a reason no one on your team as reported your manager’s fraudulent behavior to the senior management team? Maybe you can it anonymously??Leave details about your managers fraud and late of skill and knowledge in a letter or something on a senior managers or twos desk? Tell they can verify the fact that he is lying about his degree ?
We all work remotely, how can we report him anonymously. And then, we don't want to be known as the person/persons who outed our manager.
You are lucky he faked his degree. I have have worked with people who did have a degree but were otherwise exactly like this person. You will eventually find a way to oust him, especially if you all agree

To report anonymously: make a free email account somewhere and email your company's human resources team. Say they need to investigate his credentials.
There are a few threads to follow here
1. Is his role to be a tech manager or to be a manager that directs the team and acts as the liaison between management and technical talent
2. Are there other highly technical people functioning as technical manager, but with an IC role, so that the right technical choices are being made and meaningful mentorship is still available to you
3. Have to seen his CV and have you verified that the listed degree didn’t exist at the time they claim to have been there. A degree may have been renamed.
4. It is oftentimes the case that PhDs/highly technical folks need to be counter balanced by strategy minded management. When leadership makes this choice they need to be deliberate as to how they solve the pain points of credit, mentorship, and employee development for specialists reporting to generalists.
5. I had this exact situation, and I’m not even a PhD and it was infuriating. I’m leaving the team because it’s clear management likes this guy. It’s politics.
All our engineering managers are technically competent, like they can literally work on tasks and push them to production. That includes our CTO, he writes code sometimes and reviews his teams tasks when he is not doing admin work. All teams have a PMs and a scrum master who deal with the management stuff.

What do you mean by diploma graduate?
Does your company not have an anonymous ethics reporting mechanism?
I understand in tech nowadays a degree is not thaaaat important, but how does someone with a pass on his diploma and a bachelor's degree that doesn't exist lead a team of data scientists and data engineers. Not only that, the fact that most of the times he can barely contribute in team meetings and then steals peoples ideas... Do you know he once asked if the APIs we use could be used to store data 😅
Why not approach him and ask about it? Also show concern that he’s not giving the rest of the team credit for their work. How would you see his resume? LinkedIn? Maybe it’s my age and lack of patience for posers but I don’t have any problem approaching anyone and asking difficult questions. What’s the worst that can happen? It’s toxic already.
How would you feel if I confronted you for faking your credentials and acting as an imposter? You would become defensive, its not a good approach especially since faking credentials is a fraud in my country. He might be sued by my employer.
He was hired to come to the team as an expert and lead the way to build data science products and also incorporate AI workflows to our processes. Clearly, he has no Data science background but has exaggerated a lot on his resume. We have a Google drive folder where all employee resumes are added, anyone can access it.
