Pay them a very brief personal visit, and ask if there is any other paper work to be submitted, smile, be friendly and light, and don't stay too long.

Call the HR department and let them know that you are calling to follow up on a job you applied for and are wondering what the status is (i.e. currently interviewing, filled); tell them your name and the job you applied for. Ask if you can speak to the hiring manager directly. If you are lucky to get through to the hiring manager. Tell them you applied for the position and want to know if they have reviewed your resume. If they said they have, ask them if they had any questions about your resume. If they tell you they haven't reviewed it yet, be sure to tell them your name and that you are very interested in the position and why. You may feel like you are being pushy, but you aren't! It shows that you take initiative and that you have follow-up skills. I've had potential candidates call me and after I speak with them, I"ll immediately pull out their resume. I am usually glad they called because it puts a "personality" with the resume and I get a better feel for the potential candidate. Good luck!

In most big companies they have applicant tracking programs that a resume/application can easily be lost. It is fine to find out the name of the recruiter and call them once, and even follow up with a thank you after the phone call.
Be careful not to be too pushy calling more than once every 2 weeks.

Say exactly that. "I just want to follow up on the interview I had for the ' ' position." Ask them if they could perhaps give you a timeframe for when they will make decisions or further notifications.
It's not being pushy, especially when they should assume there may be other opportunities and you have to stay informed in order to make decisions.

Send your interviewer a nice letter, thanking them for the time they spent with you, and for the opportunity to submit an application. Be sure to mention some topic that you spoke of at the interview, to remind the i nterviewer of who you are. Since most people don't send thank you letters, you will be foremost in the interviewer's mind when the time comes to choose a hiree. Naturally, you must use good spelling and grammar, and sign your whole name and phone number.
Best wishes.

It's a good idea to follow up - sometimes when I've interviewed a ton of people, it helps me to recall what I liked about a certain person. Also it shows you have good follow-through skills.

call them and thank them for the interview.
Most employers expect followup calls.
