volunteering

Hello, I have a second interview on thursday for a volunteer position which I don't any details about yet in a local hospital, but today I was offered a job at SNF and I accepted it.

Do you guys think I should still go to the interview and apologize to the lady personally or should I just call tomorrow and cancel the appointment.

P.S : I am 27 weeks pregnant and the first interview for volunteer position, the lady stated that I should be committed minimum of 4 months, they keep rescheduling this appointment 4 X since last month. now that I am due on September, I won't be able to make that committment.

What do you think I should do, I don't want her to think that I am a player.

any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I would call, just be honest and say due to accepting a job, you would be unable to fufill the volunteer requirements. Thank her for her time and you should be all set.

I agree with above.

Just make the call and politely decline the offer. Going to the interview to only decline the position will not accomplish anything but make you feel better. The employer (recruiter) will not like that his/her time was wasted.

I agree with bsyrn.

A call would be enough. It would save both yours and the employer's time. Just be honest with them and that's it! Congrats on the job! :cheers:

A call is a good idea. There's no need to talk to her face-to-face. In fact, if you call in enough time, she can use the time she set aside for the interview to do something else on her busy schedule. People understand that a paying job takes precedence over a volunteer job. You don't want to burn any bridges, so don't just do nothing, however. No call-no show isn't taken kindly...
