Personally, I find nothing wrong with this. He didn’t answer the phone. He checked to see who it was. If my phone rang, regardless of the situation, I’d check. What if it was my wife (who knew I was in an interview) and she was stranded somewhere? What if she were in an accident? If the call was her, I would have excused myself politely and taken the call.

Sorry, but I’ve gotten cell phone calls that changed my life.

I think I would have let the call go to voice mail and then excused myself 5 minutes later to go the restroom. A good excuse to check the voice mail in private.

You were too kind. After the first gaffe, I let them go.
I just say “Well, that’s all we have time for today. If we want to know more we’ll call you, is this the best number? Bye”
