So HR called me. I missed their call by less than 10 minutes because I was on my way home from work. They left a message for me to call back, but they were gone for the day. I can't believe I have to wait until tomorrow to hear if I got the job. It's driving me nuts not knowing.

Did they give any feedback? Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. Sometimes they will if you think to ask while you're on the phone with them.
It is not a big deal one way or the other, but I've found it very helpful in the past to know why I didn't get the offer.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

Aww, jinksd. I'm sorry. I know you were hoping for the position; however, there's always another opportunity.

They didn't give me any feedback, but it never occurred to me to ask, either. I'm pretty bummed, and it doesn't help that there haven't been any jobs to apply for in a couple of weeks. I'm sure something will eventually turn up, but I've been searching for about three months already. This is the closest I've come to getting a job.

But you are currently working, so just keep doing your best and keep looking.
I graduated with my MBA in May 2008. I did not get my first post-MBA job until July 2010. I hope very much it doesn't take that long for you, but sometimes it does just take time for the right position to come along.
