About how long after you filled out a job application did they call you?

I know that waiting time varies for every job etc etc, but i'm just getting antsy. This would be my first job so I don't really know what to expect or how long it takes. How long after you fill out a job application does it usually take before you get called? That is, if you're even going to get called. Again, I know it varies with every person and every job, which is why i'm asking for your own individual experience.

Thank you

I usually get called back within a week or two. If it takes any longer than that, they either aren't interested, or just haven't gotten around to looking at any applications yet.

Depends on how many people are applying

Job applications are always tough - how should you fill them out? Should you follow them up when there is no reply? I suggest there's no true answer but the resource in the box below has some superb tips and tricks about this. It certainly helped me when I was filling out job applications recently, additionally they have alternative stuff on job searching.
