A few questions about following up with firms post- callback
1) if you haven't heard from a firm for a long while after the cb is there any benefit to emailing to express your continued interest or does this always lead to a prompt ding ( if you dont have another offer already you are telling them about)?
2) if so, what is the appropriate amount of time to wait post cb to email?
thanks!

Re: following up?
I've done it a few times. It hasn't led to a 'prompt ding', mostly it just makes you feel like you are doing something. I think we want to do it because we feel powerless and removed waiting. I think it can likely only do harm to your chances (but probably pretty small degrees of harm) and can make you feel better about your chances if you get a reply.
If you must, I'd wait a month, maybe longer.
TL;DR - Probably doesn't matter, do it if you really need to feel better about yourself.

My CSO recommended that I do it for one firm 1.5 weeks after CB. Firm is top choice.
