The dist. mngr of a company called, I missed his call and called back, he never called back, what should i do?

Question

This co. found my resume on line, hr called me I drove out and looked at the store, waited for dm to call, he called when I was away, it was late so i called back next day. Never heard back so after 2 days I called hm, had to leave another message and still have not heard anything? Should I have done anything different? Should I contact them again?

Answer 1

Yes, be aggressive. If you keep calling, they'll think you are serious about wanting the job. If you just call and leave one or two messages, they may just move on to other people and think you don't really care.

So you hopefully don't miss any other calls, when you do talk to the DM (or leave another message), provide your cell phone #.

Answer 2

Get a cell phone even if it is prepaid so you can always give the same phone number and never miss a call unless you turn it off to go into interviews or other meetings.
Call him back two or three more times, he may just be really busy or have taken a few days off try until after Sept 12 when he should be back from Labor day if he took the week off.
