If you are still in the job search process, it is extremely important to follow up on all contacts. It is not good to just sit and wait for results to come pouring in when you think that you've already done your part because your contact information has been distributed.
Consider two men applying for a prime position at a company. After the interview, the first applicant just sits around waiting to hear from his prospective employer.
The second individual makes a follow up call two or three days later to see how his application is going. The first gentleman does not make a follow up call and still waits at his home. Who do you think will get the job?
Keep in mind the first applicant was more qualified for the job, but he did not get it.
You will not get a job unless you follow up and show more interest than the other applicants. In any business, online or brick and mortar always follow up. It will bring you more success than you can imagine.
Some things you might want to keep in mind.
* Send a thank you note right after the interview, ideally after a couple of days. This is a way of getting the prospective employer to hear from you again. Should you not get hired for the current position that they offer, someone from that company will likely keep your information on file for future consideration.
* Do not forget to leave your contact information with them such as your cell phone and your email address.
* Make sure you alert your references so they are aware they might get a call.
* Above all be positive and smile.
