Phone interview.... but no call?
Scheduled a phone interview with firm about 1 week ago. Said it was going to be 75mins. On the day no call. Waited for 1 hour. Saturday night 8pm btw.
Unprofessional? or should I just suck it up?

suck it up. Happened to me twice at a BB. Ended up getting the offer after 2 rounds.
It happened to me for my freshman PWM internship. My contact was just really busy and I ended up calling them after 15 minutes and eventually got the offer. They haven't forgotten you...
Contact them. End of story.
phone interviewer didn't call (Originally Posted: 03/01/2009)
I had a phone interview scheduled for 9pm with a bank in its Asia offices (10am there). It's now 9:05pm, and I haven't received a call. I don't have a number I can call them at, what should I do? E-mail them saying I am yet to receive their call?
I think being a little late is understandable... in another fifteen minutes maybe shoot them an email
I was waiting for a phone interviewer to call me (5 minutes late...), I called up the HR recruiter who set up the interview, she made a few phone calls and the guy finally called me.
It turns out his schedule was off by an hour, so it wasn't really a big problem. Bottom line, just call/e-mail the bank and figure what's up.
i waited for 30 mins once before they called me from the asia office..
wait for 20 mins, if thye dont call, email the hr/contact
pretty common, i've had to reschedule a hk phone interview last year 3 times before finally having it. two of them were exactly like your situation, no calls for 30 min and i had to e-mail HR to see what's up.
tuaj, seriously? 5 minutes? Don't be so uptight.
I had an interview scheduled on Thursday at 4PM, the guy ended up calling me on Friday at 3PM.
Thanks guys. Didn't mean to seem uptight, every interview I've had has been on the dot. In any case he called at 10:15.
heh, how horrible would it have been if he had just lost his job that morning.
The world has changed. And we must change with it.
he did seem a bit ticked off.
Informational phone interview set up, but no one called (Originally Posted: 10/08/2015)
After cold emailing an alumnus, I gave him my number and we scheduled an informational phone interview for the following day. However, I did not receive the call. Anyone have any tips on what should I do in this situation? Did this ever happen to you?
Thank you in advance, any tips would be greatly appreciated!
If you're the one wanting a call why didn't you get his number and call him instead? You have to be proactive about it - I would always ask for their number and give them a call first. Gotta give them as few reasons as possible to flake out
