[Melayu Oil & Gas] Info for Sharing (Telephone Interview Tips & Techniques) & Resume Upgrading Services [9 Attachments] Shamsul Saiman shamsulsaiman@yahoo [melayu-oil-gas] To melayu-oil-gas@yahoogroups Wednesday 03 September 2014 at 1:12 PM Telephone Interview Tips & Techniques: Employers use telephone interviews as a way of identifying and recruiting candidates for employment. Phone interviews are often used to screen candidates in order to narrow the pool of applicants who will be invited for in-person interviews. They are also used as way to minimize the expenses involved in interviewing out-of-town candidates. While youre actively job searching, its important to be prepared for a phone interview on a moments notice. You never know when a recruiter or a networking contact might call and ask if you have a few minutes to talk. Review these tips, then take a look at our phone interview tips video for more advice on how to pull off your phone interview without a hitch. Be Prepared to Interview: Prepare for a phone interview just as you would for a regular interview. Compile a list of your strengths and weaknesses, as well as a list of answers to typical phone interview questions. In addition, plan on being prepared for a phone conversation about your background and skills. * Keep your resume in clear view, on the top of your desk, or tape it to the wall near the phone, so its at your fingertips when you need to answer questions. * Have a short list of your accomplishments available to review. * Have a pen and paper handy for note taking. * Turn call-waiting off so your call isnt interrupted. * If the time isnt convenient, ask if you could talk at another time and suggest some alternatives. * Clear the room - evict the kids and the pets. Turn off the stereo and the TV. Close the door. * Unless youre sure your cell phone service is going to be perfect, consider using a landline rather than your cell phone to avoid a dropped call or static on the line. Practice Interviewing: Talking on the phone isnt as easy as it seems. Ive always found its helpful to practice. Have a friend or family member conduct a mock interview and tape record it so you can see how you sound over the phone. Any cassette recorder will work. Youll be able to hear your ums and uhs and okays and you can practice reducing them from your conversational speech. Also rehearse answers to those typical questions youll be asked. During the Phone Interview: * Dont smoke, chew gum, eat, or drink. * Do keep a glass of water handy, in case you need to wet your mouth. * Smile. Smiling will project a positive image to the listener and will change the tone of your voice. * Speak slowly and enunciate clearly. * Use the persons title (Mr. or Ms. and their last name.) Only use a first name if they ask you to. * Dont interrupt the interviewer. * Take your time - its perfectly acceptable to take a moment or two to collect your thoughts. * Give short answers. * Remember your goal is to set-up a face-to-face interview. After you thank the interviewer ask if it would be possible to meet in person. After the Interview: * Take notes about what you were asked and how you answered. * Remember to say thank you. Follow with a thank you note which reiterates your interest in the job. Resume Upgrading Services: Double your chances of getting the right job by keeping your resume updated.
