How to follow this up?

So a trader friend recommends me to a friend who is also a trader, and they're looking for people, so I contact him and have a long chat/interview with them. The guy that can make the decision is on holiday, and wont be back for a couple of weeks.

How would you follow this up? I had a really good interview with the guy, and ticked all the boxes set to me.

Email? wait to be contacted? Call them? What content would you put in it?

My best guess is an email saying thanks for the chat, still very interested, when am I likely to hear ?

Thanks in advance,

T
