How pushy is TOO pushy?
I recently (as mentioned in another thread) found my DREAM job. It is planning activities for a country club. My experience in this field is... well... none, but my experience in planning activities (sorority, Dance Marathon, and others...) is broad. Well, I sent my resume' to the GM at the club, and then went on Spring Break. I had given my dorm number on my resume', but they made us unplug our answering machines over Spring Break, so if she had called, I wouldn't have known. I e-mailed her on Sunday, then got an idea. Because of my "limited" experience, but because I have full confidence that I will do a good job in this position, I decided to do full reports on the activities that I planned to do if I was hired. I included two event orders, a list of ideas that I had, a PR plan, an example of a press release that I might do, and a flyer.
It is now Tuesday, I sent this yesterday (so it wouldn't be there yet, but probably tomorrow). I'm starting to freak out. Was a resume', e-mail, and a plan of activities too pushy, or appropriately aggressive? At what point should I take her not calling as a rejection? I have applied for jobs at Hard Rock, and they sent an actual rejection letter, but I know a lot of places don't do that. This whole process has been about a week and a half since my resume' would have gotten to her, so I don't know if it normally takes this long to get an interview. I want her to know I'm serious about this, and that I would put tons of effort in, but I'm so afraid that I came on too strong. Please help!!!
