Pre-Interview Tips: Prepare! Practice! Present!
- Prepare: Keep documentation at your fingertips – be it resume. Know your strengths, weaknesses, and potential areas of concerns, answers to tough questions . Have a pen, pencil and notepad handy for note-taking during the course of the telephone interview.
- Practice: Before your designated interview time, rehearse and practice multiple times in a quiet space to increase your chances of excelling in the phone interview.
- Present: Sound professional and speak with clarity and conciseness. Avoid fillers such as “well, um, uh,” and “and uh.” Keep your conversation relevant to the job target.
- Avoid smoking, chewing gum/food, or drinking beverages during your interview. Reveal your manners by expressing your thanks and appreciation for the interview opportunity.
- Close the telephone interview by summarizing your credentials in support of your candidacy and your interest in the job.
Post-Interview Tips: Question yourself ??
- What went well?
- What, if any, areas need improvement?
- What did you learn?
- What are next steps?
