I went for a final stage job interview on Friday (having convinced myself I had fucked up the previous stage before getting the call). I was the last person to be interviewed; they said they were hoping to have the hiring meeting as soon as possible, maybe even that day, but that I'd certainly hear 'early next week'.
With no call all day yesterday or today, at 5 I decided I had to get away from being on tenterhooks and went to the gym. Put my phone back on at 7 and, Sod's law, the recruitment agent had called
But he hadn't left a voicemail.
I know I'm making an assumption, but if I'd got the job, wouldn't he have left a 'good news, call you with full details tomorrow' message? Whereas 'thanks but no thanks' isn't something you want to leave on an answerphone. I'm also thinking it could be a 'leave the crap tasks until hometime' scenario.
Am I just being paranoid or should I be getting my 'thank you for considering me' voice ready? 😕
