I recently followed up on a job application I submitted for a marketing position at a local tech company. After a week of waiting, I received an email response from the hiring manager. The email was polite but didn't provide much information about the status of my application. It mentioned that they were still in the review process and would get back to me soon. I'm feeling a mix of hope and frustration, as I really want this job but the lack of clarity makes it hard to gauge my chances. I'm considering whether I should continue to follow up or just wait it out a bit longer.
