[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 374848, member: 4264"] Sorry you were hoping to hear and didn't today. I know from personal experience that these things are run of the mill type normal experiences in job hunting. And I've known it to go both ways when people don't get that call the day they were told to expect it. Some people hear back that they aren't the applicant to be hired, some get calls with job offers. You would think that when a potential employer says they will make calls on such and such a day that they would call, professionalism and all. This leads many who don't hear that day that they have no chance at the position. I have learned however that employers do expect interviewees to hold to schedule but don't always stick to it themselves. Try not to read into this much,honestly. It could mean anything. You got it and he hasn't had time to call. You didn't get it and he's dodging you or hasn't had time to call. More candidates. Thought he'd be decided by now but has several qualified people and is mulling it over. His dog was hit by a car and he didn't work all weekend like he thought. Work was hectic and unforseen things led to him not making call backs today. And on and on, who knows. I am sure you will hear on Monday. If Tuesday morning comes without a call, I would make the typical call back type thing. Polite and no mention of their mess up not calling when they said they would. Just a simple callback reminding them that you are still very interested in the job and offering perhaps more references if they are interested and you look forward to hearing if they have a job offer as you believe you can fit in well in their company blah blah blah. Hang in there. You are under the gun with pressure to sort things out. Sure he probably got the general feeling of that from your dialogue. But in the end, he's not under the gun with pressure to decide on a hiree the way you are, Know what I mean?? This job or another, good things are coming for you. Sheer determination to get on your feet is moving you in all the right directions. (((hugs))) And crossing fingers for you about this position. [/QUOTE]
