A recruiter contacted me alittle over a week ago for a procurement position. I had a phone interview with the hiring manager last Friday and they brought me in for an in-person interview yesterday. The recruiter told me after the phone interview that she was extremely interested and felt I was the person for the job and that she did not need to be sent anymore resumes. After the in person interview yesterday, the hiring manager said I had everything she was looking for and I just had to meet with the COO for a final approval. They are in urgent need of help and need to hire someone immediately. My interview with the COO was short but good and I felt we hit it off. He brought the hiring manager back in and looked at her and said, "I think we're good". She asked me how much notice did I need to give my current employer. I felt secure that I may be offered the job. I called the recruiter after the interview and told him that it looked good and I had a feeling that I may be offered the position. I am sure I am over anxious, but I thought he would have least given me some feedback by now. Would it be too soon to call him and ask what the employer's intentions are? The recruiter more or less told me it was in the bag. I am going away on vacay and wanted to know the status before I leave. So, should I contact my recruiter or wait for him to call me. They want to fill this position asap.
The in-person was just yesterday, so you may need to be a little patient.
However, a recruiter is a much different animal than the people at the company looking to hire - you can most certainly pester your recruiter (because they want to see you placed so they get their commission) - its not the same as calling the company directly. So yes, follow-up with your recruiter - let him (or her) be the one to follow-up with the company on your behalf - that's part of their job.
Agreed. You can pester the recruiter. Not the actual company.
My departments needs people a month ago, but that doesn't mean that hiring is a super fast turn around.
