That being said, I have had it happen before that the email comes before the phone call b/c we had an over eager HR employee or two. I agree it's less personal so hopefully it was just a screw up? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/job-offers-by-email-vs-phone#post-2887708 Wed, 12 Jun 2019 19:56:05 +0000 LadyDi 2887708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’ve gotten unofficial offers over the phone but the official offer/letter has been in writing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/job-offers-by-email-vs-phone#post-2887705 Wed, 12 Jun 2019 18:48:16 +0000 Pollywog 2887705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never gotten a job offer over the phone. Always in writing. I've worked in local and federal government and multiple non-profits. Always email.

DH has been interviewing for first year nursing positions and today he received an offer by email no phone call. The email seems less personable than someone calling but I am wondering if that is just me. </p>
