I applied for a job last week which I'd REALLY like to do. The job advert was pointed out to me at 4pm on deadline day, when the deadline was down as 12noon. Cobbled together a brief application and sent it off just before 5pm, then called the next day to ask if my application had been received / accepted. The manager who is doing the recruitment was now away for the week but the guy who answered the phone confirmed it had been been received.
That was last week, so the manager is presumably back this week and I can't decide whether to call, e-mail or leave it. My application was sparse but with key qualifications & experience. If I phone up I would just be grovelling and diluting my application form but would at least be speaking to the guy. It could just turn out awkward if I have nothing useful to say. Its only a small place where the job is and i'm pretty sure the guy i spoke to will have mentioned it to the manager, so i'm tempted to leave it at that and hope for the best.... Any ideas?
