Rob,

- I would say "go for it" if it weren't for the short time on the current job.
- Asking the boss if you are on the list shows that you yourself are wondering if you are the right fit for the job. Again, you may not have been on the cut list but you will put yourself on it.
- On my last point, this does not apply, if a whole department may be affected. Then you may go ask your boss. I still wouldn't mention any offers. Non of their business.

Cheers,

George
