Nowadays, in addition to traditional interview methods, there are many other ways to conduct interviews, including telephone interviews, which are always very different from face-to-face interviews.
1. Schedule your time
Schedule your time so you can have a comfortable interview without being disturbed by children, pet noise, and especially by other people around you—you can focus on your work.
Note: Always keep your job application on your desk in case of unexpected calls from recruiters.
2. Preparation - checking telephone lines
Make sure that when you are on a call, there are no problems and you are not interrupted by another call.
3. Search for information about the recruiting company.
Research the company you're applying to to prepare for the interview, and practice answering simple questions such as:
- How did you find out about our company?
Why are you applying for this position?
4. Prepare for a suitable salary.
Preparing a salary proposal beforehand will help you be more proactive in the interview, avoid hesitation when asking about it, and ensure your proposal is neither too high nor too low compared to the general market.
5. Recording
Recording interviews with friends will give you control over everything from your voice and speed to your intonation.
6. Ensure quietness.
Make sure you are not distracted by surrounding noises during the interview, including cell phone calls and keyboard typing if you are seeking information from the company.
Note: Using headphones during interviews will help you feel more comfortable and confident.
7. Avoid repetition.
Interviewers usually listen and take notes on what you say, so repeating your answers will cost you points.
8. Thank you:
After an interview, whether in person or indirectly via phone, you should send a thank-you letter or email to the employer.
