Since it is between 2 random people

This is simply not true. A applied for a job to B and B is ringing him about the application A made.

And just how exactly do you know that it’s B calling you? Do you know every prefix and number range that company can be calling from? Could it be a recruiters personal cell, or maybe a 3rd party VoIP system.

So now you don’t know what number it’s from. Maybe it’s a scam then, or maybe you’re working on other things, like being in the middle of class (since it said intern). Do you step out to take every call that may come in and waste your time since there’s no message being left?

This is not the point. You applied for a job and you are expected to pick up the fucking phone as much as you are expected to read and reply to an email.

The only issue with this guy post is him not either leaving a message or sending a quick email saying he tried to contact them, that's all.

You are ludicrous.
