    The company revealed that it has 40 full-time reviewers who examine more than 8,000 applications each week, and that each application is checked by two individuals to ensure "that the review process is applied uniformly".​

    Assume 40 hours a week that's 1600 work hours or 96,000 minutes. (Taking no account for breaks, meals)

    8000 apps is one app every 12 minutes.
    But each app is checked twice, so that's 6 minutes per app.

    But........ it depends what you mean by "examine" because it doesn't say 'check' or 'approve' or any other word that implies actual activity.
