Post-interview: to follow up or anxiously wait?!

Nurses Career Support

Published

I am a new grad and just interviewed for a nursing position with a home care agency on Friday! I felt the interview went extremely well. I met with a case manager and she seemed to really like me. She even went as far as to tell me about some cases I might fit well with, and told me what wage she could offer me. It seemed like I pretty much had the job in the bag.

She did want to check my references, which is totally expected, so she said on Friday to expect a call either Monday or Tuesday (today). I still haven't heard from anyone, so I'm wondering if I should follow up tomorrow by making a phone call? Or would that seem too annoying? I'm sure they're busy or just haven't gotten around to it yet but I also am scared maybe they aren't actually interested in me?!

I am really interested in this position, so if I called I would most likely say I interviewed on Friday, I'm following up because I'm very interested in working with your company and just wanted to make sure you didn't need anything else from me. However, I've heard that can be annoying to an HR rep, so that's why I'm hesitant! But if they aren't going to offer me the position I need to move on and keep applying for other jobs. That's basically my biggest dilemma.

Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks so much!!
