YAJT: Should I call back about position?

[S Freud]

So I'm a student right now about the graduate next spring. I opted to take some online classes this term and work at a ski resort. I didn't decide to to this until recently so my application wasn't process until recently. I heard from a friend that the orientation was this past weekend and I hadn't filled out my application until last week so I wasn't called.

I called the hiring manager for the department I applied to and he said there are still plenty of positions available and that he is interested in talking to me but needs to pull my application and look it over. At the end of our call he said he would call me later this week. Now I am left wondering if I should call him if I haven't heard from him by the end of the day tomorrow?

My application wasn't forwarded to his department originally because the application asks you to apply for two positions and it sends your application for the first one alphabetically.

What should I do ATOT? Its not like I am concerned with landing this job or not, it won't have any influence later on and I already have a part time job at a restaurant. I just thought it would be fun to work there for the winter and get a free season pass while doing so. One of the only things I am waiting on for this job is whether or not to take one class on campus this term or leave it strictly to online classes for ease of work schedule, so I would kinda like to find out.

Thanks to anyone with advice and who read all of this.

How long since you talked to him? I'd give him at least a few days since talking to him. You have to find a middle ground between annoying him and being persistent.

My rule of thumb is 3 days after they say they'll contact me I'll contact them.

I was told I would know if I was invited back for a second interview by last thursday, but I just got emailed today for it. In that case its good I didn't pry too quickly, but I would have emailed them on friday if I hadn't heard from them by then.

I last talk to him on Monday. I figured tomorrow afternoon is a good time to call if I haven't heard from him before then. This way I can talk to him before the weekend and the possibility of starting orientation.

This monday or last monday? If this monday then waiting till tomorrow is probably good. You do want to catch him with enough time to think about it as a lot of people will be taking all of next week off and he'll completely forget about you over that time. If you get him before the week ends you may be able to get him to do something.

This last Monday. I figured catching him before the weekend was a good idea too.
