How long should I wait to follow up with the hiring manager after I’ve submitted my application? Is it even necessary?

I don’t see a harm sending an email letting them know if you just did it online. If you sent it directly to them, give them a week to review and consider before following up would be my recommendation.

I agree with A1. But I think your energies should be focused towards researching the firm for the eventual interview and checking your network to see who can lift your resume to the top of the pile by advocating for you

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM.

Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.
