Send a thank-you within a day
A short email is enough: thank them for their time, mention one thing you talked about, and say why you are interested.
Keep it short
For example: “Thank you for meeting with me today. I enjoyed hearing about the new warehouse plan, and I would be glad to help build it. I look forward to the next step.”
Check in once if the date passes
If they said you would hear back by Friday and you did not, send one friendly note the next week. One check-in is professional; many are too much.
Stay gracious if the answer is no
Thank them and ask to be kept in mind for future roles. People remember how you handled it. If HireUp introduced you, tell us how it went so we can share feedback and keep you updated.
