    Hi maam. My interview was done and at the moment they done asking me questions, the interviewer told me that she will endorse me first to the boss to where position i will fit. She will also endorse me to the two different departments if they have any vacant position for me. "We are in need of cost accountants and we are urgent hiring. We will call you. We have your number here in your resumè, just standby we will call you anytime because I will endorse first your application to the boss." she added.
    The problem now is, it's more than a three weeks since my interview and now I am still waiting and having anxiety that what if they will never call me anymore?
    Base on what she said to me after my interview, do I have to follow up or will I just keep waiting because she said I will standby for their call?

    I appreciate the effort but this video wasn't very helpful… It seems like you are only giving advice for office/corporate style jobs, and you didn't really explain how to do a follow up in very much detail. You gave an example of a brief paragraph that you could email someone but what if you are applying for a job at a sandwich shop or something like that? Or even say a McDonald's. Should you go in in person? How should you go about finding the correct person to email if that is the way you should approach it, and saying pretty much immediately is vague it would be a lot more helpful if you gave a specific number of days or hours or whatever before you follow up. Also you should go over various things the employer might bring up while you are following up, like even if you just send the example paragraph you used obviously they are going to respond and then what do you do next? I get that it is a brief video and I appreciate that part but pretty much all of my questions are still unanswered and I have watched the entire video. Again I definitely appreciate that you are trying to help people and give good advice I just think there is quite a lot that was only skimmed or skipped over completely👍
