Question

Help answer this question below.

If a job asks for me to email a resume to a person in human resources but doesn't list a phone #, is it appropriate to find the number online and call to follow up? Or would this be bad form?

    I am involved in the hiring process at my agency, and we list email, fax and physical address in our contact inofrmation, but not the phone number. I would follow up by email since you sent the resume in that manner.
    "Dear Search Committee: I sent my resume on April 4. I'm very interested in an interview. Can you tell me when you plan to contact candidates for interviews? Please let me know if you need additional information about my qualifications. Thank you."

    Always nice to have someone follow up once. Shows interest, but don't hound them if you don't get a return call.
