How long does it take to hear back from phone interview with boutique?

As the title says, how long does it take to hear back from a phone interview with a boutique? I had a phone interview with the firm about 1.5 weeks ago and have not heard back since. I go to an Ivy, but my school is a non-target for the firm (usually takes a few Wharton kids). Also, should I contact one of my interviewers to ask when I can expect to hear back?

"IBtoM7" Would appreciate any feedback as to if I should move on or email my interviewers.

do both.

Keep reaching out to them, but also look at other opportunities. I usually wait 2 weeks before reaching out again, depending on how the interview went. As much as you think it should be a signed/sealed/delivered deal, they have to do work on their end as well.

Also, you don't know where you "fell" in the hiring phase. You could literally be the first person they phone interview and they have to go through maybe 20 more people, besides trying to work. Or you could be the 20th person and hear back in a couple of days.
