Based on the most helpful WSO content, it's not uncommon for banks like Deutsche Bank to take longer than expected to process applications, especially for off-cycle roles. The "reviewing applications" email is often a standard update to keep candidates in the loop, but it doesn't necessarily indicate rejection or progression. While it can be frustrating, it might still mean you're in consideration. Keep your options open and continue networking or applying elsewhere in the meantime.
