How long should I wait after a final job interview?

So at the beginning of Feb I found my dream job on Indeed. I know you shouldn’t get attached to a job but I love the sound of this one. I meet all the qualifications and experience and it’s a personal hobby of mine, so I’d genuinely enjoy doing it everyday.

After sending off my application, I received a response inviting me for an interview the next week. Since then, I’ve had a trial round to see how well I can perform the duties, and then two more interviews. The last one was labelled as the final interview and gave me a chance to meet some of the team, which makes me think the options have really been narrowed down at this point!

The whole process from start to finish has been really slow. They’re a small team with no HR, so they’re having to handle recruitment on top of their day to day job tasks. After each round, it’s taken around 8 days to hear back.

It’s now been 9 days since my final interview and I’ve heard nothing back! I naively thought that this would be the quickest round, since there are less people left to get through. My question is, how long should I wait before getting back to them? Is the final round the slowest or the quickest? I’m not sure whether to give up hope at this point

Thanks guys! I guess I was scared of looking too needy. I sent a follow up yesterday afternoon, fingers crossed 🤞
