Follow-up call question

So I talked a Partner of this small private equity firm into helping me get an interview. A few weeks have passed and the application deadline was last Friday, so they should be interviewing applicants this week. I plan to call him this week to follow-up on his promise. What should I say that does not sound too desperate?

Thanks!
