Importance Tip for Telephone Interview


There is one type of job interview that is practiced by most companies before the actual interview and that is Telephone interview. This is something you could handle and it is somehow a polish for you for an actual interview.

The following are the things you have to have in mind so that you would be able to pass a telephone interview when you are able to do the following well:


    • As you wait for the interviewee’s call, place your resume near you for guidance.

    • Bring a paper and pencil for you to take notes.

    • Be sure to turn off call waiting options or whatever features that may disturb you while taking the call.

    • Make sure that there is silence for it may disturb your conversation if there are children crying and other forms of noise.

    • No stereo, no TV please.

    • Beware of eating or drinking anything while on an interview. You could take a sip of water when the interview is that long.

    • Speak clearly and smile while you answer..

    • Listen well and do not interrupt the interviewee.

    • Answer briefly but straight to the point.

    • Say thank you and appreciate compliments.

    Though you do not see the person on the other line, you have to act as if you are talking face-to-face. It is good to be relaxed while taking the call.

    When the phone rings, take a deep breath, lift the receiver and say to yourself that you are indeed going to make it for that job.
