When should I call to follow up about the offer letter?

Question

I was told by the company I applied for (a Fortune 500 company) that I was accepted for the position I applied for and I someone will be calling me on Thursday or Friday about the cover letter. It is now Friday at about 2:15pm but I haven't heard anything from them yet. The call was just last Tuesday. Any ideas when should I follow up..

Should I call today or should I wait until Monday?

Answer 1

I would call Monday morning about 10 AM, and mention that someone was suppose to call you by last Friday. If you call in the morning they will have the rest of the day to get their part done for you.

Answer 2

I'd give it until Monday afternoon.  Things could have hit the fan at the last minute and you don't want to seem pushy.  Happy and enthusiastic, yes, but not pushy.  

And congrats to you on the new job.....
