Two days is more than sufficent. If you call to soon you will just be considered annoying. Two days is great cuz they have time to brainstorm the other applicants and it shows you are enthusiastic about the job.

  1. A week to 10 days. You probably aren’t the only candidate.

  3. Why not? It couldn’t hurt. Either that or send them a thank you note for taking the time to interview you. That would remind them about you and put you in their heads.

  4. Trust me on this one.
    Never phone two days after an interview.
    If they like you they’ll hire you if they dont they wont.
    If they decided straight after the interview and i nformed secretary to send letter at the earliest thats same day post.
    If they sent it first class then very earliest is next day.

    Thats assuming they made their decision the minute you left the room.

    It takes me a day after the interviews to decide then I have to send the yes letter and some no letters. This and do my normal daily routines. It gets fitted in some time in the next couple of days.
    You phoning me to enquire unless you are a superstar I’m going to give your Yes letter some extra thought.
    Leave it AT LEAST a week
