    I failed to mention that I'm searching for a room to rent in an apartment. So I am the extra roommate that the original lease-holders will be having. Should I still contact the landlord?

    is it appropriate to contact a representive through phone if only given email

    yeah sorry about the dumb question. I didnt know the proper etiquette regarding this matter (still a college senior). I left HR my number and email address so they can give it with him. They also forwarded me to his voicemail, in which i left a message. Hopefully all goes well.
