Are you talking about adoption from foster care? If you are, then most workers will have a date where they'll review all the homestudies they've received on a particular child, and pick the best match.
However, what date they'll do that often isn't known. It takes a really organized, timely worker to know when she'll do that very far in advance. Many workers simply get to doing that on a day when they don't have any emergencies to deal with - and that can be any time from tomorrow until next summer. Sometimes it takes more than the one worker, too - sometimes a committee or even a judge is involved - and then you have their schedules to deal with as well.
Most workers are too overloaded to telephone to anyone other than the matched family after the matching is done. Most people hear nothing if they aren't chosen.
It wouldn't hurt to contact that worker and ask if she knows when she'll make her decision. Make sure she's received your homestudy, and ask if she has any questions for you.
If you're talking about a different type of adoption, then I don't know the answer. Good luck either way!
