Job hasn’t called back after accepting offer letter..?

Question

so I had a interview this past Monday at Bealls outlet. the store manager sent me an offer letter that same day. I accepted it & filled out all the necessary documents that needed to be filled out. The store manager wanted me to call him to let him know that I got everything done, so I called the next day (tuesday). 1st time I called, he wasn’t in yet, so I told the lady to have him call me back.. he never did so I called back & he finally answered & told him I finished everything. He told me he had a conference call that day so once he finishes, he’ll look at everything & call me if he has any questions. Towards the end of the call he said, “I’ll be calling you soon” Its currently Thursday and I haven’t gotten a call back. Is it possible that they moved on with a better candidate even though I got hired? or am I over thinking? Any suggestions or advice would be helpful! :)

With this covid crisis going on he may have alot of problems he's dealing with. If you don't hear from him today then I'd suggest calling him back tomorrow.  I wouldn't worry to much just yet.

Relax. Did your offer letter state your start day? It should have. If not, then the manager is still trying to figure out when they might need you. It is perfectly acceptable to call the hiring manager again. Make sure you ask the questions that will get you a specific answer such as when you will start, when you will come in for training, who you will report to if it isn't this person, etc.

Many retail sores aren't ready to open to the public yet because they are still figuring out their policies and or the local ban on opening hasn't been lifted.

For goodness sake the man is busy you are not his first priority.
He said he will be calling you soon, not today, not tomorrow but when he has time.

You're overthinking it.
