Anywhere from 2-7 mins. If it's light work then less rest, if it's pretty heavy and intense then I'll rest longer between sets.

They say if you want full muscle recovery in between sets (such as in 1RM max testing) 3-5 minutes of rest is needed. Same time period for strength and power(olympic lifts) for resistance training.

i read something somewhere. about less than 1 minute for stamina/endurance, around 2 minutes for muscle building, and 3-5 for strength. This coincides with the reps, usually, high rep endurance lower rest, and singles with bigger rest. but basically do what works for you.
