Leaving message to schedule callback

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Aug 21, 2012 10:19 am

So I received a callback email Friday evening. I called twice on Monday (yesterday) to schedule the callback interview. The second time I left a message with the requested information they wanted in a message should they not answer. How long should I wait before I try to call again? I don't want to seem like an aggressive lunatic but I also don't want too much time to pass. Thanks!

I just had this problem as well. Turns out the person doing the scheduling was out of office and got back to me late last night after the original call last Thursday. If you just left a message Monday, I'd give it until the end of the week / next Monday, but I'm not sure there is a right answer.

I'd call back faster. The next day even. Its not gonna hurt your chances as much as getting a super late CB could.
