not everyone has a good auditory memory, mine is shocking, i have to write down most things immediatly to be able to remember them especially things like phone numbers. I must start carrying round a pen so this never happens to me.

Can't you just google map search the company's headquaters/location in the area for which you applied?

ydi... next time put ur phone on speaker and write it on ur cell. good luck though!!!

why the heck wouldnt u drop everything and Find paper and pen?

YDI. Always offer to call them back or ask them to hold on a second while you go inside to get a paper and pencil. It's your responsibility to keep in contact if you want the job, I'm sure they have plenty of other people in line.

aw, that sucks. but it only takes a sec to get pen :(.

Unlucky there, although as said, asking him to call you back wouldn't have come across as professional.

that was dumb of you. the guy probably moved on to the next person on the list. YDI

She wasn't on a computer at the time ("outside")! However, the professional thing to do would have been to go inside and get a pen and paper. They would rather wait on the line then bother calling you back. Also, since you were outside, I'm assuming this was a cell phone which means a) you have the number to call them back in your phone, and b) you could've typed the information into your phone. I won't say you deserved it, but I hope you learned something from this experience.
