Hey guys, I recently had a final round interview for an internship. Since the interview, my phone number has changed and I no longer have access to the number that is on my resume.
If I were to receive an offer, would they resort to emailing me should I not return their call? Would it look presumptuous to proactively inform them that my number has changed?

Not going to lie, it looks pretty weird to have had to change your number. Most people never need to do that in their lives.
with that said. Yes you should tell them and you should probably give a five word explanation why you had to as well.
Not really weird. Switching carriers or buying a new phone will occasionally have you changing your number. Just let them know why and if it’s a stupid reason (your ex keeps calling you or the like) just lie say you bought a new phone because then it’s weird.
