Assume I Didn't Get the Job?

Don't ever email the same person twice with no reply in a sort of nagging fashion, but you can definitely email your original contact. I don't necessarily think that will work, but the person who is the most eager about the job often ends up getting it, by way or persistence or whatever.

Don't read too much into it. Sometimes the company doesn't have its shit together. I got one job 6 weeks after I interviewed just because they didn't want to "rush" anyone.

Use a phone! Use a phone! Use a phone!

You can't ignore someone you're talking to on the phone.

Just say you're calling to confirm whether or not they are still considering who to select for the position. That's a professional thing to ask and not unreasonable, as a professional you are following up more opportunities, after all.

I know, right? E-mail is the world's most non-forcing form of communication, and for good reason: it's cheap, takes zero effort, bypasses proper conventions of correspondence (used to be you could show you were an awesome professional with nothing more than a correctly formatted letterhead - that's why I always make my application letters correctly formatted in Word and send them as an attachment, not that I've had to send many because my career has been set for life since internship), and so, so easy to ignore (oh, I must've accidentally deleted your e-mail/it must've gotten caught in the spam filter/I guess there was a problem with the server). E-mail is also a form of communication that gives zero indication of persistence even if you send five of them, exactly because it's such an effortless form of communication.

Not so with paper correspondence, phone calls and physical visits. Of those, a phone call is the simplest and least time-consuming.
