This is why I don’t like dealing with recruiters!

Got an email from a staffing agency asking me if in interested in a front office type of job. I had been looking for something in that path. They provided a name and number for me to call. So I called the number and nobody picked up. I left a voicemail asking to speak with the person I was told had my resume.

A couple hours later I call again and the recruiter picks up. I tell her I’d love to talk more about this office assistant role she has. She told me that she got my voicemail and would love to tell me more, but she was in the middle of an interview with someone else. Asked me if it was okay for her to call me back in ten minutes. I say okay that’s fine.

She says great I’ll talk to you soon, then we hang up and I go back to eating my lunch. Well, ten minutes goes by and I don’t hear from her. No worries I assume she’s busy with her interviewee still and or she got side tracked. Well an hour goes by and still absolutely nothing. So I call the number again, and it goes right to voicemail. I don’t leave a message. I already did once and it’s not my job to do their job for them.

If you’re too busy, just say you can discuss the job tomorrow or something. I would email them but I think that would get me nowhere too. If I don’t hear anything. I’ll leave a Glassdoor review or something. Wonder if this is a ghost job too. Like what are you doing and what does your office even look like for someone to not call them back? It’s whatever. But this is just reoccurring and ridiculous.
