Phone Interviews

Peggy McKee
CEO of Career Confidential LLC
Phone Interviews are…
• Awkward
• Scary

If you don’t make a good
impression, you’re OUT.
Phone interviews are critical.
I’m going to tell you everything you
need to know:

 How To Set It Up
 How To Prepare For It
 What Questions To Ask
 How To Answer Their Questions
 How To Follow Up After The Interview
Why are phone interviews such a big deal?
• They like you, but they’re looking for
reasons not to like you.
• They’ve got a list… but they can’t
interview all of them.
• They have to narrow down the list.

Phone Interviews Are
Really Phone “Screens”
Tip 1

Pick a good time and place for YOU.

• When You Are Most Alert

• No Distractions Or Interruptions
No Spouse
No Kids

No Noise

All of those things will interrupt your thought
process, so you won’t be as effective.
Tip 2

Find a landline.

• If you still have a landline, use that.
• Control as many factors as you can –
the quality of your call is a big one.
• Use a cell phone ONLY if you have
crystal clear reception.

Things like, “Can you hear me now?” will put a
negative spin on your whole conversation.
Tip 3

Research the company AND the
interviewer.

• Start with –
 Company Website
 Google
 LinkedIn
 Facebook

Knowledge is power.

Look up your interviewer
the same way.
– What’s their background?
– Do you have anything in
common?
Would you like to see more?
