I’m a college Junior who recently went to a career fair to look for summer internships. I talked to the VP of one department and really liked what he was working on. On top of applying and submitting my resume, I sent him a follow up email, and he let me know he was sending me directly to his senior talent recruiter.



I don’t want to copy the email chain directly (they have a message about confidential emails at the bottom of our messages) but it went like this...



Recruiter: Hi, it seems like you had a good experience with (VP) at the career fair. When would you be available to set up a phone call to talk?



Me: (gave my phone number and various times for Wed - Fri)



Me (on Monday): Hi, I never heard from you during those times. Would you like to reschedule?



Recruiter: Yes, let’s talk at 3:45 today



Me: sounds great, looking forward to hearing from you then



Me (at 4:15): Hi, I didn’t hear from you at our scheduled time. I hope all is okay.



It’s been 3 days since I sent the last email and I haven’t gotten a response back, or any explanation on why she missed the time we had set up. Everyone I’ve talked to who have had more experience with job searching has told me this is really weird and unprofessional. What additional steps should I take? Would it be inconsiderate of me to contact the VP I originally talked to and let him know the situation with his recruiter?



Thanks

    Did you always confirm if it would be the recruiter calling you or you calling them?

  • I was wondering that. Everyone I talked to said that a majority of the time they will call you. I also gave her my phone number. The only contact information I had from her was her number at the bottom of her email signature. Also, after we never called the first times I listed (Wed-Fri) and she didn’t mention that she expected to hear from me, I assumed it was clear she never called me as opposed to me never calling her.

  • Also, if I had to call her, I assumed she would have responded after I gave her times for Wed - Fri and said “okay, this time works best, call me then”. Her lack of response made me think “I’ll probably just get a phone call unexpectedly during those times I said I was available”.
