Last Monday I applied via email (the company asked for email applications) then on Thursday I rang to check they had received it as this is a job I really want and I had no other way of knowing they had it. The lady said she couldn't see it but they had had a lot of applications and they were about to start going through them. She said to send it again which I did, to the same address as before so I hadn't got that wrong. This time she replied to confirm it had arrived ok.
It's a very small company and the advert said they needed someone to start ASAP so I thought I might have heard something quickly but nothing yet.
My cv is a bit bitty as the last few jobs I have done have been contracted and when they ended I didn't rush to get another job so each time 6 - nine months gaps. I haven't had to work so it wasn't a problem. I do however need a job now.
I have got an interview for another job on Friday but I am not keen on it but I have to get a job soon.
Is there anything I can do to chase up this job without putting them off? Or if they have decided to not give me an interview could I ask them to keep me on file? They are a company in a field I really want to work in and the only one in our city so you can see why I am so keen!
I would really appreciate any advice anyone could give, especially if they employ people directly and can see it from their perspective.
