For the position of Marketing Manager, I had had a cordial interview at a place that lasted for 2 hours. I had met them in person at an event they were hosting, and that's how the process started. They put up a hiring post for my role >one day< before my interview was scheduled with them. They deleted that same post the next day of my interview. That post had 300 likes.

I waited for 15 days and finally sent a follow-up, to which they have said the following

```

Hello zerozits

Thank you for your patience with my response. I’d request another day to get back to you since I’m waiting for one moving part in this process to settle down.

I’ll be sure to get back to you tomorrow

Thank you again

<the founder's name>

```

So, what do I think of this?

In my follow-up, I reiterated a few highlights from our discussion while also reaffirming why I wanna work at their cafe. I ended it with "Since I do not want to commit elsewhere before getting to know where I stand with <their org>, I'd really appreciate any update you might be able to share regarding the role."

Am I in, or nah?

Been in SaaS as a marketing manager/brand strategist for a very long time and decided to enter the hospitality field since I want a change + it allows for a little bit more creativity (or rather the kind I crave).

I interviewed at a cafe sorta place and had brought in a ppt to show my entire thought process and I am just waiting to know the results.

My profile is a neat fit for their requirements, except for one small caveat: while I have scripted content for others and directed as well, I have never directed held a camera (passive req at this place).

We spoke for almost 2 hours and they were interested throughout the conversation (or so I read the room.)

So, I am wondering, as a bid to stand out, whether to send some additional ideas for content + a general content calendar + a workflow as to how I'd be handling brand + content + marketing in general. I did touch on all of those points but I had not added them to the initial ppt and I feel like I could have been a bit more concrete when I was explaining my approach.

One pal says that I should send but with restraint in tone; another says that it will come off totally as desperate.

So, what's your thoughts on this?

TIA.
