When in doubt, remind yourself of the simple things in your life that you are grateful. Now again go back to your job search and start with a more positive headset.

Sweet Job Tips: Job Search Phone Interview Tips

This week's Job Search Tips:

Job Search Success Strategies

Chapter 12   

Interview Questions That Change the Game     

12 Professional Secrets to a Successful Phone Interview

1. Remember that the purpose of a phone interview is to get the face-to-face interview.  

2. Make sure you have a professional, outgoing greeting on your phone for the times you are unavailable to answer.  

3. Use a land line for the phone interview as opposed to a cell phone.  

4. Make sure you are in a quiet location, far from distractions.  

5. If possible, be the one who places the call so you can have control over exactly when the interview takes place.  

6. Make sure the time that is set up is specific rather than a large time span.  

7. Make sure you allow enough time away from other commitments for the call. A rule of thumb is to allow an hour. Most phone interviews take less time than that.  

8. Dress for the session. Studies have shown that you will project yourself in a more confident and professional manner if you are dressed in business attire.  

9. Standing up during the phone interview will help improve the strength of your voice and your answers. That is because you will be speaking from your diaphragm. As a result, your voice will be energized.  

10. Speak clearly and enunciate.  

11. Let the interviewer hang up the phone and end the conversation first. Following this simple yet gracious social gesture leaves the other party with a subtly biased good feeling toward you.

12. Don't forget to follow up with a thank-you note within 24 hours.

This is an expert from my book, The NEW Rules of Job Search - How to Land an Executive Job in the New Economy, page 192-193.

Have a great week and week-end.
