Why couldn’t you take the call? I would definitely email him/her saying why not and that you’d call back either [xyz time todau] or Monday at [xyz time]. FWIW my recruiter regularly sends me emails at like 10 pm so I wouldn’t feel too bad about calling her right now, so use your best judgement on that

Haha no as in, I would feel more comfortable just trying to call her back and seeing if she picks up since I know she may be working at that time. I would never, on my own, call her at that time. But assuming she / he called OP urgently, I would feel comfortable with *my particular recruiter* trying to call her back if it was that urgent since I know she does tend to work later

Congratulations on the offer !

Offer...? I’m not sure what’s on the table. Portal says “not selected”. I haven’t called back, and plan to call Monday morning..

Are you desperate to get staffed, then email with options for the weekend (could need boots on ground Monday) but if not, wait until Monday.

Do you want the job or what? There’s probably a reason they didn’t wait to call until Monday

Monday

Send email that you weren’t able to take the call and set up time for Monday.

No voicemail?

Wait till 230am then call them at home, best chance for an offer

She left voicemail to call her back. No details. Portal now says “not selected”. Now I’m fucking confused....so why’d she call

Thanks for feedback everyone - will call Monday although I’m confused. And slightly now irritated

Calling today at 9. Let’s see what happens.....

I thought about it. Honestly feeling insulted and have more respect for myself to not let these people jerk mr around. They don’t want me that’s fine. Not wasting even more time following up

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!
