How Long Should I Wait.......

How long after an interview should I wait to follow up? Day of the interviews I sent thank you emails. How long would you gorillas recommend waiting before I follow up? Also, advice on the structure of the follow up email would be appreciated. This is something within the interview process I am not as familiar with. I appreciate and value insightful feedback. Thanks.

 

If you have other offers, you should probably reach out immediately if they don't know about them.

If not, I'd wait a couple weeks, and then say you're just checking in on their recruiting status and you're still very much interested in working for their firm this summer.

A tip for the future though, and many people don't know this: At the end of your interview, you should always tell them you are even more eager for the job after they've answered your questions, and you want to know the next steps.

 

I appreciate it. I do always ask when can I expect to hear back/what are the next steps in the process. But the eagerness part is a good point that I will use moving forward. So you think two weeks?

Its been at least one week for all three and I am feeling antsy.
