      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hmm, mind if I ask what type of job you are looking for? (OOT i
know)&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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"&lt;/p&gt;</description>

lack of tact and express interest again in the collaboration.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Send a thank you note thanking them for the time and explaining
stuffs to you, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Email them, and a handwritten one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gives you a 70% chance over other candidates.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;div class="quote_from"&gt;Originally posted by jackdaniels:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="quote_body"&gt;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?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If it's me, I will write an email to them next week. Best is if
I can get both emails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In my email, I will talk mainly about the project.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Try to recall what they said during the interviews...the issues
they faced in this project. Take for eg.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe they mentioned something regarding the budget involved in
conducting the project.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe the problem they might face in coordinating the
crew...etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Make some useful suggestions in that email relating to the issues
they might face.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the end of the email, briefly mention that you are really keen
and is waiting for their reply.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
