First of all, it is always appropriate to ask when a decision will be made while in the interview. Then, act accordingly. If you have not heard back a week after the decision was planned, contact the employer. There is a fine line between calling too much and calling enough to be remembered. Try not to overdo it. Employment decisions can take a long time, be patient.
Other things to remember: Have a list of questions you want answered before you leave an interview. Type it up, number it and put it on you lap and have a pen in your hand. When the interviewer asks you (and they will) if you have any questions, you have some. As they give you their answers, write them down. It shows you are serious about the position. Always send a thank you note after every interview. A physical note sent in the mail is best.
As a job-seeker myself, I dropped off applications on Wednesday and called them the following Monday (5 days later). The employers did not seem to mind at all; in fact, one lady said, "I'll write your name down to say that you checked in." So I would definitely wait no more than 7 days.
Thank the one making the phone call calmly and politely. It also depends on how much information the caller has given you. They will most likely tell you when are where you are next required. A good standard question is "Is there anything else I need to do at this stage?"
It is best to ask in the interview the likely timeframe for them to get back to you, but if it is too late for that then consider calling them if you have heard nothing in 2-3 weeks after the interview. It will depend on the type of job, urgency of filling the position, and the number of candidates, so this is by no means a hard and fast figure. When you call, make it clear that you are still interested in the position and that you would like to know when you can expect to hear back. Don't sound pushy, just keen!
you can say something along the lines of - "hello my name is ________. I am calling to inquire about the status of my employment application.I had an interview on ________ . I am also wondering if there are any further steps I can take." Maybe that helps
Wait till they phone you, or if it has been 2 weeks since you were in contact, then politely ring and ask if there have been any developments - don't bug them!
3 days, just like a date =) ...seriously, 3 days seems appropriate, gives them plenty of time to look it over so you dont end up calling before they have even looked at it.
You dont, give them your number and they call you

The best time to call the interviewer or the company is after lunch or an hour before closing time.
He recommends contacting interviewers again four or five weeks after the initial interview to thank them again and to let them know how any referrals worked out.
No, you should go directly to him, do not call unless you are desperate.
