Lateral Interview Process/Timing

I had a technical, two behavioral/market interviews, and interview with MD (4 Interviews total) which wrapped up the day before Holiday Break (12/23/2022) and the process overall was fast.

The team is within a niche sector of think PCA, PCM, and a super lean team. The scheduling of interviews were condensed over two weeks.

Question: Am I dinged/rejected or is the timing of the fresh-off-vacation/new year probably why I haven’t received follow-up (whether good or bad?) Note, I know many banks won’t even send a rejection email but that was not the vibe this bank gave at all. Really appreciate any help or clarification.

Thanks! I just really love everything about this role and think I hit all interviews and clicked well with interviewers. I figured but first time in lateral recruitment so unsure of timelines/different processes.
