Typically, it's best to give interviewers five business days to contact you. That means if you interview on a Thursday, you would wait until the following Thursday to reach out. This could mean you are waiting a week or longer before you get a response from the hiring company, provided they do reply.

How long should you wait after an interview to follow up?

As a rule of thumb, you're advised to wait 10 to 14 days before following up. It's not uncommon to wait for a few weeks before hearing back from your interviewer. Calling too often can make you look needy and high maintenance.

Is 3 days too soon to follow up after an interview?

A good rule of thumb is to wait four to five business days after your interview and then follow up with a message that reaffirms your interest in the position and also sells your value.
