Recruiter that Doesn't Return Calls???

My wife met her Air Force recruiter the first week of December and he thought she made a good nurse candidate (he let me sit in with them). He talked about being in a crunch for time and needed all these things ASAP and and told her to take a day off the first week of Jan to go to MEPS and a day off the second week of Jan to interview with a chief nurse. When she got home from that first (and only) meeting with the recruiter she got a lot of stuff done and faxed it all like he said. He was supposed to mail a fed ex envelope as soon as recieving the faxed papers but she never recieved it. When she attempts to call him it goes straight to voicemail. He was so excited and gung-ho during the interview and we haven't heard from him once even with my wife faxing him the documents he asked for. It is now the first week of Jan, the week she was supposed to be scheduled for MEPS. Is this normal? Is it just a holiday thing? She has not been able to find a number to call to reach anyone in his office. He went on and on about getting this stuff in to show she was serious about joining and now he is missing with no word. I hope he was not in an accident or something. What does she do now?

Just thought I'd ask this on my wife's behalf while I'm on the site, since there are a lot of knowledgeable nurses out there (and maybe a recruiter or two?).

    Yes, this process is a waiting game. Unfortunately, I hate that he is not returning your calls. Maybe post what area you are from in case there are other nurses in your area who have worked with this recruiter or they can give you another good contact number.

    Thanks for the quick reply Firefiter. We are in Topeka, KS and our recruiter is out of Oklahoma City. Anyone who could post an alternate phone number in case we never hear from our recruiter again would be greatly appreciated!

    You might be able to get more information or a number if you go to the airforce.com, click on contact and chat online with someone. I remember that's how i initially got my recruiter's number.

    And if you continue to not hear from him, call their recruiting squadron HQ.

    Sometimes you just gotta go ahead and take stuff up the chain of command.
