How long should I wait until I follow up
Wait until Tuesday of next week. If you haven't heard, you can call and ask the status. If they still haven't decided, ask when you should follow up again.

Thanks Tess...
I am just anxious due to the fact that there a high probability that I will interview with another company mid next week that doesn't require me to move!!! Decisions Decisions...
I'd wait until Monday or Tuesday of next week, the 21st or 22nd to make a follow-up call. Ask for the person with whom you spoke and make it clear that you're just checking on the status of your candidacy. My bet would be that other things have come up that have delayed a call-back to you.

Thanks Paul. Hope your vacation was good!!!
In case I do get the offer, should I request a package to see all the details? Can I request a travel allowance and temporary housing? Other companies offered that for me... Just wasn't the right fit... Any suggestions would be appreciated.
(Actually, it was a one-day business conference with one of travel getting there and one day getting back.) If you get the offer and the salary is acceptable then ask if they can run through what's contained in the benefit package. If nothing is mentioned about relocation, again, just ask 'em what's contained in their relocation package and see what they say. Zat help?

If you have other interview, don't call them, wait for them to call back. You want to get all of the offers as close together as possible, so you don't have to stall anyone.
As far a requesting a package, they're not going to do anything about your 'package' You're stuck with what God gave you.
