- NEW!
Help answer this question below.
That depends on a number of factors, including how soon they need to fill the position, how many other canidates they are interviewing, whether they've secured the budget to hire a new person, and so on.
If you haven't already done so, send thank-you notes to each person with whom you interviewed. Do this immediately - it will help you stand out more from the other candidates they've interviewed who ignore this bit of etiquette.
If you don't have their contact info, the hiring manager's assistant should be able to help you (and include a thank-you note for him or her, too).
Make sure you spell their names correctly, thank them for their time, and reiterate your interest in the position and the company. You may also use this opportunity to address some issue that may not have been covered adequately during the interview - just keep it succinct.
You can hand-deliver the notes for an extra touch, which will also make sure they get there faster than via mail.
Give them time to have received the notes - if you haven't heard from them in a week or so, call the hiring manager and follow up, asking if there is any additional information they need to make their decision easier.
To your success,

You're reading I had an interview Thur and had good gut feeling. It was 1-on-1 with 4 people for a team which has 7ppl. The hiring lady though had a conf call and so I only spent 20 min with her. Her asst said she will call me. How many days would that take?
Comments
Thanks. I sent email thank you notes because we have communicated primarily this way and it is very standard in my industry (investment management) on Thursday night after the interview.
Does it matter that the hiring mgr knows my current boss and respects his investment style? She told me they have similar values. She also said she had thought of poaching from my team but since she likes my boss she didn't. For that reason, she was happy when she saw my resume. She also mentioned they had interviewed some people who would not be able to do the job right away and they dont have time to develop people and I am doing the exact job now.
