How long to wait after getting a referral? Referrer told me to expect a few days and i’ll get a phone call, but i’ve heard nothing for almost two weeks. he said it’s out of his hands now and I don’t want to bother him

You may want to ask him once more if he can double-check for you, but unfortunately, not all referrals prove fruitful. While I wouldn't entirely give up on the possibility, don't hold yourself back from looking for other opportunities while waiting. Even if this isn't the right place for you, there's another position out there!

It sounds like it didn’t work out. I wouldn’t bother him about it, especially if he felt the need to explicitly say it’s out of his hands now, but definitely thank him for trying. Don’t let it discourage you from trying again at other companies

oh sorry he meant like “I sent it over and they need to call you” the day he referred me. they told him it looked good then. maybe i’ll head out?

I would probably not keep my hopes very high and start looking for other opportunities.

Is there a recruiter or HR person you can contact? That is what I would do if I were you.
