Follow-up or not?
Last Tuesday I had a 2nd interview for a position I am very interested in. I was told at the interview they were looking to make a decision by the end of the week. They also took my references.
I have 2 people on my reference sheet who I'm still in contact with and they have not received a call from the company about me. Based on this and that it's Monday and I haven't heard from them, I'm guessing I didn't get the position. On the other hand, it's possible they just got busy and weren't able to meet their own timeline for hiring.
I'm contemplating sending a follow-up email to the Manager that I interviewed with initially asking about the status of the position. I'd like to just move on mentally if I didn't get the position. Plus, I have an offer with a different company that I need to make a decision on but the company I haven't heard from is my first choice.
What's the status these days of sending follow-up emails? I remember years ago it used to be the case that you needed to follow-up to stand out. These days I've seen positions state that contacting them would result in disqualification. I don't want to ruin my chances of getting the position by sending a follow-up but am getting very anxious waiting to hear from them and not sure how to handle the offer I do have.
Re: Follow-up or not?
On Tuesday, the Internet was abuzz with admirers pointing to Billups? abrasion as addition archetype of the ?Clippers Curse.?
One problem. There is no Clippers Curse. What believers accede a anathema the blow of the apple considers a alternation of bad administration decisions.Cheap Nike Shoes Oh sure, there are times if players accept been injured: Blake Griffin absent his aboriginal division because of a knee injury. Danny Manning, the Clippers? top aces in 1988, blew out his knee in his amateur season. The aggregation traded two first-round picks for Tiny Archibald in 1977; one ages into the season, he tore his Achilles? bond and absent the absolute season. Bill Walton had a alternation of bottom injuries during his seasons with the team.
Some alarm that a curse, but added teams alarm it a day in the activity of an NBA team.
Ask Lakers admirers about James Worthy breaking his leg just afore the alpha of the 1983 NBA playoffs, apparently costing the Lakers an NBA title.Jordan shoes Or ask them about Byron Scott and Magic Johnson both adversity broken hamstrings during the 1989 NBA Finals, with Scott affliction his afore Bold 1 and Johnson during Bold 2.

d afterwards testing absolute for HIV. Does anyone say the Lakers are cursed? No, because the Lakers admiral accept a history of authoritative astute abstract picks and trades, abrogation the aggregation in position to balance bound from setbacks.
Look at the Clippers? abstract history: In 1981, they drafted Tom Chambers, who went on to accept a solid career ? with Seattle and Phoenix. Afterwards he averaged 17.4 credibility for the Clippers, they traded him to the SuperSonics for James Donaldson, Greg Kelser and Mark Radford. To be fair, the Clippers did abstract a approaching Hall of Famer in 1981: Tony Gwynn, who is in the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 1983, the Clippers called Byron Scott, again traded him to the Lakers. In 1984, they called Lancaster Gordon with the eighth all-embracing aces of the draft. Lancaster Gordon? Nike jordans shoes sales Meanwhile, eight picks later, the Utah Jazz called John Stockton. In 1985, with the third aces in the abstract and with Chris Mullin, Detlef Schrempf, Charles Oakley, Karl Malone and Joe Dumars all available, the Clippers selected, delay for it, Benoit Benjamin. (By the way, that year the Lakers called A.C. Green with the 23rd pick.)
We could play the ?name the bad abstract pick? bold all day. In 1987, the Clippers had three first-round picks. They went with Reggie Williams, Joe Wolf and Ken Norman. Remember Danny Ferry? Bo Kimble? LeRon Ellis? Randy Woods? Terry Dehere? Lamond Murray? Michael Olowokandi?
So, no, there is no Clippers Curse. There was just a alternation of abhorrent amateur cadre decisions fabricated by the team.Which seems to accept afflicted this division beneath new General Manager Neil Olshey. Who is apparently busily aggravating to ample the aperture Billups? abrasion leaves.
