How do I call a recruiter and tell her I want to cancel the interview?

No need to lose any sleep over this. Just call and be honest, and say somthing like this. "You've re-evaluated your position and after careful consideration don't believe the role is right for you. That being the case it wouldn't be in yours or the employers best interests to attend. You will however be pleased to discuss future roles which might be more suitable".\nJob done....Good luck!!

they should have an option on the website to cancel.  or look under contact information and email/call and they will tell you how to do it.

Be Honest to your friend, if she is any friend at all she wont be mad. You have a gut instinct about the situation so go with it!  I think you should tell her exactly what you told us, "I canceled the interview because after a lot of soul searching and praying, I felt that it was in my best interest to stay in my current field at this time in my life". As your friend she should be supportive of any decisions you make (wheather she agrees or not), but also let her know how much you appreciate her offer and help and that it was a great idea just not something you want to jump into right now.

This is just flat rude of her to just be gone and give no apologies at all - once maybe, but not twice. When you make another appointment (that is if you are still interested in working there), ask personnel to please contact you should the manager not be available. Be sure that they hear you say that your time is valuable, and you don't have the time to waste on a wild goose chase like the last two attempts. Thank them cordially, but be firm in your statement. If they don't understand that - find another job opportunity somewhere else. Good luck.

Call the company you signed up with.

before you give them a chance to say anything (assuming you have caller ID and know ahead of time that its someone you dont want to talk to) say "Hey is Johnathan there?" ...as if you were the one calling. when they reply say, "Oh ok, I'll try again later then."\nAnd hang up the phone\n\n--Monker

yes, be polite, so they know you are intersted. ask how the interviewing process is coming along, and if they are going to be selecting candidates soon. good luck!!

It's terribly annoying how so many businesses have mastered the tactic of making cancellation of their services a nightmare.\n\nI get around their tactics by ALWAYS asking for a supervisor right away.  When the call center rep says that they'll be happy to help me, I respond that unless they want me to take out my frustrations on them, they should put a supervisor on the phone.  It works everytime!

My advice is to go ahead and start the unwanted job. If you do get an offer for the one you really want go ahead and accept it, then explain  to your other employer that another opportunity has come through for you.  You can always give a two week notice (or less, depending on the company).  \n\nGood Luck

First of all, you need to make sure that you are speaking with the manager. A good way to be sure of this is to say,\n"Hello, I was wondering if I could talk to the manager, or whoever is in charge of hiring."\nThey should connect you to that person. If they say they are not available and ask for a message, leave your name and say that you are checking on an application that you recently submitted. Ask if there would be any better time to call back.\n--------If you are connected with a manager------------------\nDon't try and kiss up by asking about their day. They will see through it, and most likely be annoyed. Just be formal and to the point. Say something along the lines of:\n"Hi, my name is __________. I turned in an application recently, and I was wondering if you have had a chance to look them over." (wait for them to respond.) \nReply to what they say to you, and then make the point that you would really enjoy being given an opportunity to work for them.\n\nGood words to use:\nopportunity (what a good one it is)\npotential (all that you have to offer)\nstatus (of your application)\nPlease, Thank you, and (when ending the conversation) thank you for your time and consideration!\n\nGood luck!

Call the company, and be firm.  \n\nI warn you.  They'll try to persuade you to keep the account. I argued with one "representative" for nearly 15 minutes.  I grew more angry over the length of the call, and (sorry) began a bit of profanity towards him/her.\nAlso, write a letter (and keep a copy of it).  Keep it brief and simple.\n\nExpect your request to be satisfied immediately.

Talk to a recruiter they will know.

You should return the call and tell her not to call anymore since you do not work there.  Offer to be a consultant at $25/hour if they need to find anything with a minimum of 4 hour shifts.

Just see a recruiter...

I've turned down several positions due to the same reason.  \n\nPolitely/professionally decline, without apologizing, and move on.  "After thinking about it carefully, I'm going to turn down the offer at this time. Thank you."\n\nNo need for an explanation, unless they politely press for one.\n\nTry to "keep the bridge connected."  Something else may open up later.

Try to avoid stabbing the interviewer. Even if they ask you too. That is usually a trick.
