Message Name: When to follow up after sending resume?
Date Posted: 07/23/2003
Message: Hello there, I need some advice. I recently emailed my resume and cover letter in response to a position advertised in the Sunday paper. The company only listed a fax number and email address. However, their website shows a 1-800 telephone number and the initials of the person in charge of receiving resumes. Is it proper procedure to call the company if they have not contacted me in one week? two weeks? by the end of their deadline (Sept. 18?)? Any comments would be most welcome. Thank you!
