Telephonic interviews has emerged
as an easy and feasible way of conducting interviews. Personal interviews tend
to get costly and time consuming when conducted without any screening of
applicants. Through telephonic interviews, companies eliminate all the
unsolicited applicants and only qualified applicants are therein called for a
personal interview.
The quality and performance of
your telephonic interview would determine whether or not you would be called
for a personal interview. Here are some not so common tips to nail that
telephonic interview.
1. Find yourself a private spot.
Cut all distractions
Don’t underestimate the impact of
telephonic interview. Don’t take it casually and set your foot by being fully
prepared for an interview. Find yourself a private corner at your home. Make
sure the place is away from all the noise clatters at home. There shouldn’t be
any distraction be it in form of person or any object. Find yourself a corner
where you could concentrate fully.
2. Research as you would for an
in person interview
As said earlier, don’t take such
interviews casually. Prepare for it priory as you would for an in person
interview. Research about the company, job role, its responsibility and an
interviewer. Prepare you question list and things you would want to enquire
about. In short, don’t waste an interviewer time by going in clueless. Make
them feel assertive about you.
3. Keep your resume handy
In spite of this being a telephonic
interview, you would encounter questions based on your resume. Keep it handy
and take your time to relate your answers with skills mentioned in resume. It
is better to take a pause instead of continuing with blabbering. And most
importantly, don’t lie. No matter what just avoid speaking lies.
4. Listen before you speak
As opposed to an in person
interview, you can judge the interest of an interviewer based merely on their
tone. You cannot predict anything as you cannot see their facial expressions.
Don’t hush yourself into answering. Listen to what interviewer has to say or
ask and only when he finishes you can begin talking. If you are not clear of
what they asked simply ask them to repeat. Calm your nerves as you speak.
5. Slow down your pace
Telephonic interviews might make
you nervous and you might make most silly errors through your way of speaking.
Don’t be too loud and nor too fast. Answer at a slow pace as if you are talking
with an interviewer on face. Maintain a pause of 2-3 seconds after they finish
their question and then begin with your talk.
6. Follow up with a thankyou
Once you’re done with a
telephonic interview drop in a personalized message thanking them. Thank them
for taking off their valuable time and how you look forward to hearing from
them.
The quality of your telephonic
interview would decide the fate of your job selection. Make sure you don’t miss
an opportunity to personal interview for silly errors.
