The phone interview should never be underestimated. Just as you would look for tips on how to ace a face-to-face interview, you should take phone interview tips and phone interview advice seriously.
After all, being interviewed over the phone might be the one thing that determines whether or not you get the job.
Tips For Phone Interviews
Phone interviews should be treated with great care. Even though you’re not dealing with the interviewer face to face, you still want to wow them. To that end, you’re going to want to do everything you can to accomplish that goal.
Thankfully, if you’re looking for phone interview tips, our employment agency in Broward County has some adviceto consider. The great thing about these tips for your next phone interview is that they can be applied to virtually any interview with any sort of company:
- Take the phone interview seriously. This cannot possibly be stated enough times. Every step of the way, you need to pretend being interviewed over the phone is exactly the same as being interviewed by the person face-to-face.
- Keep your resume with you at all times. This is going to make it easier to draw from information about yourself as needed. You can also keep your cover letter handy.
- Make up a checklist of everything you want to accomplish or say during the interview. This checklist can include your skills that are relevant to the job listing, the main points of interest about the company, the average salary for someone with your experience level, and more.
- Any list of phone interview tips is going to tell you to have a phone that will make it easy for you to understand what the other person is saying, while making it easy for them to understand you, as well.
- Dressing up for a phone interview may sound like a strange piece of phone interview advice, but it’s a suggestion that’s still worth taking seriously. When you dress as though you’re actually going to be speaking with someone in their office, your confidence rises considerably. For many people, looking professional translates to feeling professional. This in turn can translate into a successful interview.
- Stand up or sit up during the interview. When you’re standing, or even sitting in an upright position, you’re going to feel more involved in a conversation. That means you’re going to sound more involved to the person on the other end of the line.
Acing phone interviews isn’t that tough if you are prepared. Thrivas employment agency hopes this helps.
