So I had a phone interview with the hiring manager last week. He said he’ll get to me about next steps but I haven’t heard anything. I already sent 1 email saying thanks. Do I follow up and see how things are going? Or do I just wait?

Following up is good. Shows you want the job. They may be busy.

How many times is ok to follow up? I sent a thank you email the day after. So then follow up again the next week to just say thanks and I’m still interested?

What day did you have the phone interview? In general, I usually wait a week between correspondences before following up again. I'd do that here, and then again a week after if you still don't get any response.

Had my interview last Tuesday. So i should follow up more than once?

With holidays coming up, I’d probably follow up early this week. Gives them time to hopefully respond back, but may still be waiting for a while.

Yeah I worry about the holiday season slowing things down.

Either they are really busy and someone will eventually get back to you, or you didn’t cut it

Yeah I worry about not making the cut, even though they said they’d get back to me. I’ve been ghosted before at this stage!

Follow up again, perhaps by phone. Or send another email. I’d say keep searching elsewhere, of course. But keep in the back of your mind you may get a response.

I hope I get a response!

I would definitely follow up. Employers love it when you're excited about working there and show initiative. There is no downside to following up on a job.

I used to have a fitbit. Really liked a lot of its features. Like the reminder to move and the competition within the app (games and competitionvs friends). However, whenever I was at work I'd find myself taking it off for more comfortable typing and then forgetting it during the day. Now that I'm back at work I'm sitting more and need to move. I was thinking of getting an oura ring. Does anyone have one? Any thoughts as to which is better?
