Contact the hiring manager
You may not get in touch with the person you expected to. If you do speak with the hiring manager, treat your conversation like a phone interview. Speak clearly and slowly. Be certain that the person you are talking to has your undivided attention. Turn off any televisions or radios you may have on.
Ask the hiring manager as much as possible about the organization. Ask him/her to describe the ideal candidate for this position. Expound upon your background and skills and qualifications. Ask the hiring manager if they feel that you are qualified for this position. Do not be shy! It is also appropriate if you have reached this stage to ask if the organization is setting up interviews for the position. Let the hiring manager know of the research you have on the company.
Make comments about the industry the organization is in. Be prepared with a question or two for yourself. If you do not get in touch with the person you expected to, be certain to leave a detailed message. Remind them of your resume, and let them know you are interested in finding out if you might be qualified for the position
