No.  I'll wait for them to contact me at this point.  8)
However, I did manage to write down the names of the folks who interviewed me, and intend to send each a thank you note to let them know I appreciate them taking the time to talk with me.  And regardless of whether I made the cut or not, let them know that I learned something from the process and hope they would consider me for a future position as they come through the staffing process for new operators.

Any reason you don't want to call them? It may be none of my business, I am just curious.

Good luck!

No, other than the interview ended with them telling me they would call me back within the next 10 days to let me know of their decision.  Would those of you who've been there, done that, got the merit badge call them pre-emptively or wait for the call and then call on the 11th day?  Now you've got me curious.  ???

Never wait. Call them within a week.

Got it.  See, told you I'd learn something from the process...that's why I read and post here.  Thanks.

Yup that is what I was getting at, its your career, go after it.

What I did for all of my interviews was this;

I had my thank you cards ready to mail and with me at the interview. As I left the site, I dropped them in the closest mailbox I could find so that they would get there the very next day. Then I called a week after, and every week after that until I was told one way or the other. During the interview, I tried to find common interests with the person I would be calling so we could shoot the shit for a while during my calls, and so that it wasn't just a 30 second "hey did you make a decision yet"? Even if I didn't get an offer, it all seemed very positive from their end and I think that my strategy helped me get 1 or 2 more offers than I would have, had I just waited for them to pull my name out of the hat.

Good luck and keep us posted!

Justin
