Hi All,

I received a telephone call from a recruiter regarding a Senior Admin Position.  I called her then she called me back.   She told me the week of Mrch 22nd, that I would be contacted by another recruiter, when I clall her back two days  later, she then said she would give me the interview.  We decided that I email her after Jury Duty, which I did.   My jury duty was only one day, Monday, March 29th.   I emailed her and left her a voicemail.  No response.   That was last Wednesday.   I called her on Thursday, she picked up the phone, without saying hello " Nichelle I will call you back".  I have not received any contact and believe that she will not give me a telephone interview.

The kicker is, that I have applied for another position and when I looked at my status on line, it said "To Be Screened for position" and I  have not received any contact for that posiion.   Well. this is the same recruiter for the Senior Admin Position.  What should I do?  I  wanted to go over her head, but she seems to be a senior recruiter.

Splurge!!!!!!!! on whatever you want, and yes I would send him a thank you note

The most in one year, maybe I have worked at my desk twice.  I just get up from my desk and say, "I'm out to lunch"  

You need to get into a pattern of taking lunch.  The same way you created the habit, it can also be broken.  

If you can not take a lunch hour everyday, then take lunch three times per week;  but do it.  You will feel better, because for one hour your thought process is not on the work.

I agree.  You need clarification.  Schedule yourself into their calendar and ask about what you need to know.  Your'e not a work horse.

I have to work the whole week except for Christmas.  I have only two days left for vacation,  that I am holding off on.

The position was scrapped.  I was not told why.  Human Resources contacted me before the interview.  So, I will be applying for another.

Thanks

I am applying for a Executive Assistant Position with the company I have been an Admin  for two years.  It would assist the VP of Corporate Engineering/ Facilities and Construction.  This is a newly created position, which means that there is no one in the department whom I can ask  re: the character of this VP. What are some good questions to ask to ascertain his management style / personality?
