Callbacks that are extended later

Sorry if this has been answered before, but what would be the most amount of time between OCI interviews and the firm giving a callback? I have been extended a summer offer from one callback, but it is not in my ideal market. How long should I wait for firms I screened with at OCI to give me a response before I call it quits and accept the other offer?

One thing I've been told a few times now is not to give up hope until you get the ding, because they may be waiting to see how many people take them up on the cb or on the offer they get from the cb. I'd say that after maybe a week passes from OCI or more, you could e-mail recruiting to check status/express interest, but that is just off the top of my head so wait for other posters to agree with me before doing that.
