Are you planning on responding to all candidates that apply? I applied quite a while back and never heard anything in the positive or negative even after following up multiple times.
I received a phone call out of the blue almost two months after applying (about a month ago now). The caller admitted the ad had been posted too early and apologized for the late response. I suspect most of the early applicants, like me, were no longer available.
