My only gripe is not leaving a voicemail. Canadidates are not receptionists, so making assumptions of people based on not answering two random calls through the day is not really a good way to recruit talent.
I'm not that old but I'll answer every call when I can, I'll call back if you leave your number to my VM, I make it a point to follow up if you reach out,. However I might be on the train, driving, in the shower and can't answer. Or, I could be having real life fun or doing real life work where I don't have to constantly be monitoring my phone or looking at LinkedIn HR-AI slop.
