^^This is my first year on the job market, but isnt this an insanely fast turn around? Just trying to know when to give up hope approximately...


 * I've been on the market for seven years. I've received rejections anywhere from two days to eighteen months after searches close, and of course (too) many departments never send a formal noification. Still, for those that do, I'd guess the average time from deadline to the first cut is somewhere between two weeks and a month, depending on the school, size of the application pool, and mood/efficiency of the hiring committee. I would't panic if you don't hear back after a week or two for most jobs.
