I Missed a call today! is it going to be ok?
Dec 24, 2006

Don't worry dear if you have missed a call and you think it must be a potential employer. It happened with me too. Most of the times they will leave a message but not all companies go ahead and take strain to leave a graceful message for you. I don't know why but I think they don't have much time for all this and are very active in pursuing candidates who respond immediately maybe because they want to hire immediately. But there are things you can do to do research more about the number you missed

Here are the things you can do before you get back to them because you might not be interested in them after you get to know that they are some company on your "Not Interested" List like when I was actively pursuing job-search I was initially not interested in working with consulting companies although nothing wrong with them but just my preference:

  • Google the phone number you missed. Most probably if it is a land line number registered by the company to a phone company, it should show up. If not then keep reading.
  • Yahoo the phone number. Sometimes Google might not be able to show the owner of phone number but yahoo might.
  • If both of them fail to show any information than it means it is somebodies cellphone number since cell numbers are not registered and are held with private companies like cingular, t-mobile etc. In this case you have no option but to call them up if you are really desperate about the job.
Here is one more hint, most of the consulting firms don't give up and I have seen a trend with their calling. They keep calling you until you respond, also some call at a specific time interval only everyday like 9-10 am for example.
