You should hear within a week, after two weeks try following up on any updates on the process. Some lateral processes are very quick and some stretch it out to several months.

Never underestimate the incompetency of HR/recruiting. When I was looking to transfer from S&T to IB and one BB to another I had a painful process. The interviews went great, and I got great feedback from the interviewers on my thank you emails. HR calls and says they were sorry, but I wasn't a fit. I was dumbfounded but asked the woman to walk me through the feedback. She start reading and then says, oh sorry, you are still in the process. Your resume was just placed in the wrong stack??? Your feedback was exceptional. What process is it then? They then go silent so I ask my friend who was on the hook for a referral fee to check-in as they had been non-responsive to me. They call and make an offer the next day. At the time they had 5 groups seeking lateral hires. The disorganization of the people who run recruiting knows no bounds. I don't think they are malicious. They just don't care.
