From their website, I believe they wait until the submission deadline is over to process everything.

Over teams. It was very informal just some motivation questions.

Hey guys, applied for Oxford MCF and Imperial Math and Finance, does anyone know the reputation of the Imperial RMFE (Risk Management and FE) for trading positions more specifically?

First round of Oxford MCF offers were released ~Feb 17/18. There has been at least 13 offers made (the Oxford MCF Wechat group had 13 members), my estimate is that there is at least another 13 offers to people who do not use Wechat (i.e. non-Chinese).
