Do I call them? (job question)

[mrkdrt]

So here's the deal, I place I applied call me at home and cell but left no message. The number though, is of a place I applied and would have no other reason to call me other than job-relation.

But, leaving no messages, do I take it upon myself to phone them back (even though I shouldn't really know who/why the call was made)??

How do I ask the receptionist to speak with 'x' person?

Call back. Just say you call all missed calls back if they ask.

They called your house and your cell phone. If they didn't want it to be known they would have blocked their number so you couldn't call it back. (which is what most recruiters do)

The reason they don't leave messages a lot of times for interviews is they may have limited slots/times on certain days so they don't want you to think it's a commitment when they're calling other applicants which may take those spots.

Call them back and say you have two missed calls from that number and that you put in an application and believe it pertains to that. They'll connect you to the hiring manager, or the Admin that is arranging the interviews.

Call back and say you are following up on an application.
