Possible interview...Now no calls.

[incurable_optimism]

Hey Everyone,

I am seriously stressing out, and just looking for some advice from people who have been there or are currently in the same boat.

I passed my NCLEX-PN in October, just a few short weeks after graduation. I had a job I was basically guaranteed in January. So, throughout the "holiday season" I didn't really apply anywhere...totally my fault. I should have never done that. But, the job ended up falling through. (of course) So now here I am applying everywhere! Where I live all of the hospitals are going to magnet status, so the only place I can really get a job is a nursing home, which I'm totally fine with! I really do enjoy working with the elderly.

So I've been applying and basically getting instant email rejections.

I finally got a call back from a place I was really wanting. It's close to my house, night shift, 12 hour shifts. They are a national company so it was a woman in another state who called me. She said she was calling to find out my availability for an interview, I told her I was available anytime. She said she was going to call the HR director at the location I applied at and find out their availability and then she would call me back to set up the interview.

That was last Wednesday. I called her back Thursday morning and got her voicemail and she hasn't called back. Should I keep calling back and leaving voicemails? I just don't understand what could have happened in a matter of hours to go from her wanting to schedule an interview and then silence.

I don't know I guess I'm just frustrated...but I guess there are a lot of us feeling the same way. : /
