Networking at a boutique bank

So I was networkimg at this bank (one of those with no websites and such) and reached out to a senior person who agreed to speak with me.

The call seemed to be going well when suddenly he put me on hold for another call and then abruptly told me that a junior on the team was reviewing my resume and will reach out and then the senior person will be in touch again next week.

This just was weird bc nothing like this has happened before and it was all just abrupt. I also tried asking the junior’s name but he would only give me his background and no name. Is this a ding?
