It's never easy to decide the right course of action, but I'll show you what to do if you don't get a call back. Unfortunately, it's fairly common for job candidates not to receive the promised follow-up call. You might be certain you were the top model there, but still no call. Of course, it's exasperating for you as a working model, but also indicates a lack of professionalism on the company's part. But let's deal with what to do next. If you've already got a relationship with a licensed talent agency, they can also advise you on how to proceed.
It's clear to you that you were the most capable model during Tuesday's interview process, offering an unmatched portfolio and also penning a cultured and good-natured thank you letter. Although eager to begin work as the new cover girl for a makeup company, it's now Friday afternoon and there has still been no call back, even though the interviewer said there would be before the week was out. You're more than a little anxious.
So many questions are running through your mind about what to do if you do not get a call back. But, really, it all comes down to whether you should contact the company today or wait until next week? Yes, you should call the interviewer, but it would be prudent to hang off until Tuesday, when an office is not quite as busy.
Tuesday arrives with you well prepared, knowing exactly what questions to ask. You are feeling sharp and sure of yourself when dialing, but hear only a voice mail message once connected. There is no need to worry as you can just refer to your notes while leaving a message, giving your name, the original interview date, and querying whether the catalog job has gone to another model. Leave your number, too, so they can return your call today. Do not forget to thank them before hanging up.
You have to remain persistent without becoming an annoyance, so, if there's still no call back from the company, try maybe two more calls to notify them that you have received other modeling job offers, but still consider them as your first choice. If that does not work, it is almost certain that another model has been awarded the shoot.
You may be fortunate and manage to talk to someone. This is an opportunity not to be missed, so sound them out regarding how well your interview went and in what way your portfolio can be improved. Be willing to accept constructive criticism for future use.
Companies, in the main, recognize that interviewees are on edge so call them back on the stated date. But some won't. Really, if a company doesn't have the courtesy to inform you that you've not been successful, would you even want to work for them?
For now, do not concern yourself with what to do if you do not get a call back from that company and definitely do not wait around for them. Alternatively, consider making changes to your portfolio but at the same time seek out other modeling jobs.
