Proper HR protocol

Hi Guys. Quick question for y'all. Lets say you cold email a banker, and he forwards your email to HR. Then HR responds with something like, "Hi, thanks for your interest. Could you please send your CV?". You send it.. and then what? Do you wait a bit and then call them? Or follow up email? Or nothing? Is it a dead end situation?

Thanks.
