go Liese!

Cool, msbelle.

Hand is still large. Going back for more icing.

I'm pretty sure I'll be back at work tomorrow no matter what the size. I may be cursing at my keyboard though, like now.

Okay, here's the draft - subject line "Position Inquiry."

Dude's name;

I understand that J has forwarded my resume to you. I just wanted to reaffirm my interest in the position and to ask what your timeline looks like for moving forward. In the meanwhile, if it would be easy to send me a position description I'd appreciate the chance to look it over.

Regards, Moi

Yay? Nay?

I would reference your contact in the subject line so it doesn`t look like it`s just generic. And you might assertivify the language a bit. But it seems like a pretty good follow up.

I agree with Liese about referencing your contact more specifically, and would add to reference the actual position (so, the community manager position, or the materials reuse coordinator position, or wharves, rather than just the position). The more specific, the more it jogs memory and the less it looks like it could be just some random recruiterspam.

Whatevs. Not wharves. I am endlessly amused by the autocorrections of this iPad (although nothing will ever ever beat its suggestion of "worrier" for "épéeist". And it does charmingly know to capitalize WTF.)

into even more harmful chemicals. /not a chemist

Maybe not, but you're still my go to source.

Did I link here to this awesome school I went to a fundraiser for recently? [link] It's a public charter school that aside from some really strong academics (they're an IB prep school, and showing really good results three years in) "extends beyond a solid academic foundation. Organic, nutritionally balanced meals, daily yoga, gardening, wellness instruction and ecologically sustainable practices throughout the school encourage learners to develop healthy and sustainable lifestyles for themselves."

I am now uncontrollably rolling my eyes at Entertainment Tonight's attempt to make a scandal about Jets players undressing in front of a female sportscaster/bikini model from Mexico and thus making her uncomfortable. In their locker room after a game.

No more b.org for me during the day. I like my coworkers, but man, this job is full of bureaucratic bullshit.

smonster, I would say that it sounds a little casual if you don't know the guy. Of course, I'm pretty formal person and am easily turned off by people I think are too casual.

Maybe something like:

I just wanted to reaffirm my interest in the [specific name] position and inquire about the timeline for moving forward. In the mean time, I would appreciate the opportunity to review a position description if you have one available.

If I can provide any more information or you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I can be reached at [preferred method(s) of contact].

Thank you,

The awesome rocking smonster

Yeah, I like Vortex`s version.
