Turn Your Knowledge into Earnings.
I recently got recommended by a colleague for a position at a large company, and applied through an internal channel. My colleague thinks I'd be a fit for the team and the position, but my first phone interview with the company recruiter didn't go very well.
The company recruiter emailed me available times for a phone interview that day, and I replied to reserve an appointment. From here, things got a little messed up. The recruiter apparently never re-checked their email, so when the time came up that day, and I didn't get a call, I made the decision to call them 10 mins after the appointed time.
I feel this is very unprofessional for the recruiter, and being pressed for time, my phone interview did not go as well as it could have.
What are my options for contacting a second recruiter for a different phone interview? Should I mention my first phone interview did not feel like the best impression because my appointment was forgotten?
No, you should not attempt to get an interview with a different recruiter. These recruiters work on the same team for the same company. You are most likely in their computer system with notes from your interview with the first recruiter.
If you do somehow get an interview with the second recruiter, once they see those notes your attempt to reboot is likely to do more harm than any good that could come from it. It could even ruin any chance you had to be employed there now or in the future.
In this case, you should probably let it play out before taking further action. I would probably follow up at the end of the week to let the recruiter know you are excited about the potential of the position. The reason is that by calling "late" the recruiter may get the impression that you do not really want this job. Your greatest hope here is that your friend's recommendation is enough to get you an in-person interview. Even if it is not, your interview may not have gone as badly as you think. I have had a few interviews that I thought I bombed, only to find out later that they really liked me. People can be hard to read, and over the phone it's hard to read the actual response you are getting.
If this fails, most companies will reconsider a new application in 6 months to a year. When you reapply you will have a chance to get a new recruiter and even if you do not get a new recruiter you should get a chance at a new phone interview.
