What do I say when calling to check on my job application? (Please help)?

Follow up calls show you are interested in the job and will likely make the store owner a little more inclined to consider you. It's a good practice. I'd write down what you want to say, it's easy to get flustered on the phone. Hello (avoid Hi, it sounds too informal), my name is _____________. I dropped my resume off on (what ever date). I don't want to take too much of your time, I realise you are a busy person, but I just want to touch base with you about the status of my application. I'd like you to keep me in mind for any job openings. After that, let her do the talking and just answer any questions she may have. If you get the answering machine, just leave the above message and add " My name Is (again, yes repeat it) and you can reach me at 555-5555 (Say it slowly, and then say) I'll repeat that number for you 555-5555. THank you for your time."

I wouldn't do that if I was you, never call because, it looks like you are greedy and needy. So just wait for another week. If still no response, then just apply for another job.
