how long does it usually take after the interview

[Galt]

Please post the email you sent.

I bet it asked something about how much vacation time he would get if he got the job and if he could work noon-8PM

[IrishAlkey]

You don't give the boy enough credit.

[The Sleeper]

yea, you're right, I'll never get a job

[GonzoStyle]

not with that attitude.

[The Sleeper]

yea seriously, i will be unemployed the rest of my life

[theDude]

Always good to ask in the follow-up email, "Umm... I forgot to ask earlier... do you guys do drug testing?"

[GonzoStyle]

never a good idea to answer questions with "thats stupid" or "why? thats stupid" or "you're stupid!!"

[Keyser Soze]

emailing them was a horrible idea, you should have called. you need to be more aggressive and follow what gonzo has said in this thread already. i don't think you sincerely want this job otherwise you'd be making more of an effort, either that or you just have a passive aggressive personality where you only approach things with assertiveness behind the security of non-human interaction (message boards, email, etc...)

[Splatterpunk]

Maybe he's just getting used to the whole deal. It's not always clear what's appropriate to do.

And for the record Sleeper, my last job was working for a huge university. When I was hired it took them 5 months total to wrap everything up. I had 3 interviews, but from the time I had my first until I knew for sure I'd get my 2nd it took 3 weeks to get a response. Meanwhile I callled every week to follow up.

You could easily follow up the email with a phone call tomorrow. Say that you wanted to be sure they knew you were serious about your interest. I wouldn't push it further than 2 contacts this week though.

[The Sleeper]

either that or you just have a passive aggressive personality where you only approach things with assertiveness behind the security of non-human interaction (message boards, email, etc...)

duh?

[GonzoStyle]

I blame it on that crazy music you listen to.

[The Sleeper]

it might be a crazy concept, but not everyone shares your personality.

[IrishAlkey]

And that is why we have wars.

[Galt]

sleeper

[GonzoStyle]

it might be a crazy concept, but not everyone shares your personality.

Then instead of a thank you card, send the interviewer a custom made CD.
