Calling manager back after a interview, checking status of position

I had a interview and the manager told me to call him back on a certain day.

This is what I am going to say:

Im going to introduce myself to him again and remind him that I had a interview with him on a certain day,time, and position. Then I am going to say, " I was calling to check my status for this position?"

Then after we were finished talking I would thank him and say bye.

I am over thinking this way too much. I just wanted to get your opinions on the best way to say to a manager that you are checking about the status for the position (in the least most controlling way). I really think that calling them and asking them if they made a decision yet is unprofessional, that is why I think " checking the status is better".

Remember, he told me to call him back.

Thanks!

    I would reintroduce myself and remind him that he had asked me to call him back today. I would then be silent and wait for whatever information he wanted to give or ask. (really hard for me to be silent, but I would make myself!) If told they haven't made a decision yet, I might ask if there was any other information that I could offer or references that I could give that would aid him in making a decision regarding my candidacy. I would close with one or two lines about what makes me an excellent candidate for the position (especially if I thought I missed a key point during the interview) and thank him for his time. Then, I would send a note following up on the conversation, but would not contact again unless again asked. This is just what I would do. I am sure that others have differing opinions. Hope this helps! Good luck!
