3-5 days is my rule of thumb. You don't look too pushy (or needy), and you're still beating the bushes for something.

No, don't call on a weekend. If it's an office job, nobody will be there. If it's a retail job, it's likely to be their busiest time.

 

I think it's better to call sooner rather than later. You should seem eager about the job. People want to hire someone that they think is really interested because it is more likely they will stay. It's very stressful and time consuming and expensive to have turnover, they want someone who won't leave.
