An agent called me when i was in the middle of something. So we agreed that he would call me later this afternoon. By then, he hasn't called me back . I was thinking whether I should call him back to follow up. However, after reading all of your responses, I could tell he was fishing (no jobs at all).

I only follow up with a phone call if it looks like a perfect job that I really want.

NO
I always believe that they would contact me first if I am a right candidate and they have real jobs on hand.
YES
Is it really worth asking them if they have received my cv?
NO
Somehow, I feel that they published fake jobs.
OF COURSE THEY DO!!!!!!!!

If you want the job and your cv matches the spec I always follow up the cv with a phone call. Can't do any harm.
