Looking for advice....UPDATE, even more confused now....

I had an interview last Thursday and I wasn't even going to go because my thoughts were different than what the position actually is.
I'm glad I went because it sounds almost perfect for me.
When I left the interview if I had to put $$$ on it, I would say I nailed it.
The interviewer (on the younger side, maybe even younger than me) said she would call me on Monday, she loved me....Chat Icon
I sent the obligatory thank you email and heard nothing and here we are Tuesday and I still haven't heard from her.

Should I call?
Email again?

She has been extremely busy pretty much flying all over the country lately, so maybe she's OOT again......

Advice?



UPDATE:

So after calling the original interviewer, and emailing the Senior VP who interviewed me 2nd. She responds that they have yet to make a decision, and she will contact me if they want me for round 2......okaaaaaayyyyyyy.....

Do I respond to that, saying that I would like notification either way so I can persue other opportunities?

I'd wait until Thursday afternoon or Friday to follow up. Things get crazy and days just get away from you.

no, I would just go forward and keep looking.

Let them know that you are interested in the position.

i think there's only so much follow up you can do (i'm in the job hunt boat too.) once you get a response of 'we'll let you know....' I think that's the end of follow up. They'll call if they're interested and if they're not, then it wasn't meant to me. ITA with the above -- keep looking. You've let them know you're interested, now the ball is in their court.

Thanks everyone, I'm just gonna forget about it and keep looking, although the pickins are slim....

it is just so frustrating that we as interviewees are more professional and courteous than most of the people interviewing US.....what the hell is that all about?
In my business classes, the professors stressed how you need to thank the interviewer and follow up, when the people hiring you don't even have the courtesy to call......unreal.....
