I had an interview last Tuesday (6/7). They said they'd make a decision "late the following week."
So, it's now Friday of the following week.
I forgot my cell phone today. Someone told me around 10 a.m.-ish that I could call the cell phone provider and have calls forwarded to my office phone. So, I called and set that up.
I'm nervous that they may have called in the morning, and I missed it. I cannot find a way to check my voicemail with call forwarding active.
I can't go home and get my phone -- it's one hour to get home, and an hour to get back to the office.
It's now almost 1:30 in the afternoon.
Would it be OK if I sent an email to the company, expressing my continued interest in the position, and mentioning my office phone number as the preferred method of contact? My current position is temp only, and they are aware that I am applying for other jobs.
Re: WWYD?
I don't think there's a need for that.
They usually "offer" the job, giving you the opportunity to say no and to think about it.
So when you call them back (if they called) say yo'u're sorry you missed their call (give no excuse for it) but you've considered their offer and you're willing to take the position

You are way overthinking this.
Check your phone when you get home. There's no need to panic or worry about this. They wouldn't expect an answer from you today anyway.
I hope you are right.
If they are actually going to offer me the position, I really don't want to screw it up.
This isn't a game show or radio program where you have only 5 minutes to get the call & return it or else they move on to the next person on their list. It's also not necessarily even the case that they're calling *anyone* today - saying they're going to "make a decision" is a nebulous thing, and in hiring the timeline can often stretch out longer than anticipated.
