Strongly disagree with this advice. ..and I'd say the same about ups and any other airline.
I'm pretty sure they said THEY would be letting you know, not the other way around. Waiting does NOT imply disinterest, it implies following instructions, that's all.
Now, if a sponsor follows up that's a different story. ..or if you meet up with them at a job fair, that shows commitment and might even impress them.
Who knows why some cases take longer than others? Maybe their background checks had already cleared while yours is still ongoing? ..or maybe it was pure luck and they picked some names for a few classes that needed to be filled asap and now they aren't in as much of a hurry anymore?
Let's get real, in the past people often waited for months! Be patient or let others check on your behalf.
Well, at least that's my take on it.
