When to follow up with Goldman?

Had a first round interview with GS for a lateral IBD associate position. It’s now been 1 week and I haven’t heard back, I assume this means a rejection as normally other lateral processes I’ve been in I’ve heard back within a couple days? Or is GS normally slow?

How long should I wait before emailing HR?
