I had an introductory phone call with a recruiter last Monday. She asked me a couple of basic background questions, we discussed the role, and she said she would take the info back to the hiring manager and email me to set up an interview.

She asked me for times that work best for a first interview but it's been a week and I haven't heard back from her. Should I assume I wasn't selected for an interview?

I want follow up with an email but don't want to be overbearing/annoying.

Ugh. I have had the worst recruiter working with me for the last 2 months with v little movement - mainly because of her own family issues! I think it’s a direct reflection of the business if they choose these people to work with.

At the end of the day they are just sales people

It’s been a week. Follow up. When did you send her the times?

like

Def follow up.

Use the holiday as an excuse. Ask if they'd like to fit in the call before the break or wait until after.

like

Email next Monday.

2 weeks is a reasonable follow up time. Also, this is the week of Thanksgiving. Lots of people travel (which might be why you haven't gotten a response yet), it's unlikely that you're going to get a response later this week, and if it really has fallen off someone's radar, you want the reminder to hit their mailbox AFTER they return to the office, not before.
