Choose a quiet and comfortable place to take the call that’s free of disruptive background noise.
Ensure your phone is charged and has good reception. If you're using a headset or speakerphone, test them beforehand.
Keep a copy of your resume, the job description, and any notes you've made about the company or position nearby.
Think about common interview questions and have your answers ready, but avoid sounding rehearsed.
Remember to enunciate your words and speak at a measured pace.
Listen closely to the interviewer's questions and comments and try not to interrupt.
Tone and enthusiasm can make a strong impression, so even though this is a phone or video interview, act as if you’re meeting face-to-face. You got this!
