so i had a superday with GS in SF on wednesday, was on a flight friday morning, and saw a voicemail from HR (in NY) when i landed saying they wanted to update me on the status of the interview and to call them back. called 'em back a couple times and left a voicemail explaining what happened (they didn't pick up). thoughts/advice?

I'd say good news is heading your way.
Id say thats a very good sign! congrats!
Could have been a call to ding you, so don't get too happy just yet.
yeah, i figure i'll just prepare for bad news and hope for a pleasant surprise
so i told them after i landed to call me whenever (my thought was that they're on their own schedule and it would be easier to let them call me at their convenience than risk calling them during some important thing), but i feel like maybe i should still be the one to call back
what's the protocol here/if i should call them, should i wait till tuesday or something
bump (only once!)
Call back on Tuesday. Have some tact; HR loves any day they can get off of work.
dinged aaand the search continues haha
Sorry to hear. Keep your head up and keep on keeping on.
In this shitstorm called recruiting, it's never a good idea to get too attached to 1 opportunity.
my heart dropped when I read your reply
