Hello all,

I had a phone job interview today at 12.30, I got a call from an 020 number which is usually spam but I answered but the line cut out and I just heard recruitment agency so I thought it was another agency I had applied with so made my excuses to get off the phone so I could wait for the job interview - turns out it was them!

I've done so much research and was so ready for it and I've gone and blown it before I even had a chance to sell myself.

God I'm an idiot and sleep deprived ughhhh BlushSad

Ring them back

'Hello. I didn't realise you were the job interview. The line was bad and I thought you were a recruitment agency ringing on spec. Please we may we proceed with the job interview as I'm all ready and prepped.'

I have - the number I called is going to voicemail so I've spoken to the recruitment HR department thing but not entirely sure they knew what I was talking about.

I guess I'll have to see if they call me back but think I've blown it Blush

Yes indeed

020 is London dialling code fyi, not all calls from there will be spam

Panic over they've rebooked for tomorrow - I'll make sure not to blow them off this time!

I know 020 is a dial code but it's always a spam call normally haha

Thank you for the advice everyone Flowers
