the next move
-
If you were in my shoes, what would your next step be? Make a friendly call? Send a note? Cross your fingers and wait for the call? What will you do if you don't receive the call next week? -
If I were you, I'll make the call.
-
what would you tell them? call now or next week?
-
Wait for Monday. Starting of the week. =)
This might help you in future..

hmmm... its hard to decide eh. But if you really think your worth , lilke u said , u couldve been more confident. Mistakes that are done is done liaw. Cant cry over spilt milk.
Maybe give them a call. Hopefully they are not in and u leave a message . Cause if u really want the job or think u are as good as u say u are and worth the dough u putting out , then it will be better that u remind them that u exist and they will maybe put u in consideration while deliberating other resumes.
Cause it happens when i watch the managers discuss about hiring and there is one his resume and everything is real good and impressive. Just that he also shows lack of confidence in leading. Maybe the tense situation so what happened was he left a message n they were not in n was reminded by the secretary n suddenly one of them just went ' Hey..how about that collin guy ? remember ?' then bang.. he got the job. he he.. dunno if this will help.. but it also depends. But in ur post it seems that Mr Ring is more reasonable but maybe Mr Tape is more concerned about the $$$ part. he he.. -
If it's me, I will write an email to them next week. Best is if I can get both emails.Originally posted by jackdaniels:If you were in my shoes, what would your next step be? Make a friendly call?

If I can't I will focus on getting the contacts of Mr Tape because my instinct tells me he will be the one who will call the shots.
In my email, I will talk mainly about the project.
Try to recall what they said during the interviews...the issues they faced in this project. Take for eg.
Maybe they mentioned something regarding the budget involved in conducting the project.
Maybe the problem they might face in coordinating the crew...etc.
Make some useful suggestions in that email relating to the issues they might face.
You might not have the right answer for this issues right now(since you probably don't know how the company operates yet) but that's not the point.
Point is to leave them with an impression that you are truly enthusiatic about the opportunity and is able to share that "burden" they have.
At the end of the email, briefly mention that you are really keen and is waiting for their reply. -

patience is a virtue!

wait till monday. drop them an email asking results of their consideration.
if no reply, call on wed asking if they had received the email. -
Send a thank you note thanking them for the time and explaining stuffs to you, etc.
Email them, and a handwritten one.
Gives you a 70% chance over other candidates. -
I think I have ADD.
Maybe I won't make a move yet this week and wait till the next. -
I'd make a call and apologise for the many incidents due to my lack of tact and express interest again in the collaboration.
-
Hmm, mind if I ask what type of job you are looking for? (OOT i know)
If it's in a creative industry do bare in mind that alot of companies especially SMEs give salary packages which are not as good as taking in individual projects as a freelancer or to countries that value creativity's worth more than SG.
Do make a call, preferably a week after the interview. It won't make you look desperate, if they ask just say "it's more for me to plan ahead for more interviews and job hunting" -
I got the job. Man... the past is a novel someone else wrote.
Man... thanks to people who gave me advice.
I love y'all.
I LOVE ALL OF YOU!
