What to do about interview?

Published

I had applied to surgical practice a few weeks ago via a Craigslist posting. Last night, I received an email stating my resume was reviewed and I was an accomplished applicant...which is great news as I am a new grad RN. The lady who emailed me said she wanted to set me up for an appointment with a doctor today. The only problem is she sent me the email at 8:41pm and the interview was suppposed to be 12:45pm today :( I unfortunately did not get to go because I am out of town. As I read the email, I immediately emailed her at around 9:30pm saying I was happy I was selected to interview, but if there was another day I could interview for since I am out of town. Also, a downer is I was told that the preferred way of contact is via email. A telephone number was not given. I haven't heard back so I'm worried I may have missed a chance. Working in surgery is my ultimate dream!

My question is even though I have already emailed, should I email again to see if the interview can be rescheduled? If so, how long should I wait?

Specializes in Emergency, Trauma, Critical Care.

I wouldn't worry about it. If it's a reputable facility they should be aware that people cant always accommodate on 12 hours notice
