It varies a lot from person to person. There is no way to accurately tell. If you the applicant does a horrible job at the interview, the rejection within 2 weeks is inevitable.

Seems if you have dependent in your file longer backgroubd, if you have job experience in your home country again longer wait.
If you are male again longer background.
It varies person by person. I saw even male applicant got approval in 6 months.
We are waiting more than 14 months after interview and still in background check.
Just stay positive and be patient although it is hard

How do you easily tell or how can you know if or when you are in a background check?
I'd my interview already and asylum officer was very attentive and also played and love my kids.

I'm optimistic, but how can you easily know or tell if you're in a background check?

After passing one year of my interview, I asked a senator to check my case staus. They emailed him pending background check.
This is just based my experience watching cases. It is different case by case. We cannot generalize it. It is just guessing

Why does having a job experience cause longer wait ?

This is not an interview in the traditional sense. In fact, there is generally no way to do a horrible job at this interview. What the applicant is doing at this interview, is to recount all the events that happened, and to articulate basis of credible fear in the future, and finally, to answer questions from the asylum officer. So, normally, people don't do a horrible job at the interview.

Exceptions:

1. Applicant can't re-call the events of persecution in the past, doesn't know obvious dates
2. Applicant is arguing with the asylum officer
3. Applicant is throwing tantrums, swearing at the asylum officer
4. Applicant is acting as if he/she is entitled to asylum
5. Applicant is making up stuff, doesn't answer questions asked, etc.

If your interview falls in any of the above category (and others I haven't mentioned), then yeah, "you are doing a horrible job at your interview" as my good friend @msv5450 has said.
 
I just sent email to Newark asylum office and they replied to call back in 30 days . Don't understand why it is pending for 8 weeks and wait another 4 more weeks to check the status
 
Does anyone have any idea what is going on with affirmative asylum nation wide these days? There has been rarely anyone on this forum reporting that they have applied for asylum in 2020. It is pretty unusual.
