Gotcha. Give them some breathing room. Email on Wed afternoon or early Thu (like 10am) saying you're checking in on next steps or any other questions they may have. Say you remain excited about the opportunity and end with a question (like said next steps). Keep it short, nothing too fake, nor desperate. That is, if you don't hear from them before then, which would not be weird or too much of a cause for alarm. Those things can drag sometimes. After that, follow up again in a week.

I'd suggest waiting outside their house tomorrow morning and just "happen" to bump into them.

The interview was on Wednesday, i sent a thank you email the same day and got a reply the next day. So i guess i should follow up next Tuesday ?

If you want to do it earlier just fabricate another offer. If they're interested it'll light a fire under them.

I disagree SAD1. I think it's ethically (morally?) wrong. Plus it can backfire if they actually can't move fast enough. They may just wish OP luck and say bye.

3-5 business days. What day of the week was it? Don't follow up on Mondays or Fridays

Why, horizon? Not really an ethical dilemma is it? Create some urgency. No one will die.

I strongly disagree with SAD1. It can bite you in the ass.

You guys take yourselves far too seriously 😂 how can it backfire? You can fictitiously not accept your other offer either. Calm down all.
