Do not ignore their emails or calls when they follow up asking about status or the final outcome. Call them, send an email, and speak with them in person. If they are not there, do not leave a voicemail, email them saying you tried them and then call them again and speak to them on the phone. When you can afford it, send a thank you gift.
