Tips for Telephone Interview

For upcoming grads and intrepid undergrads looking for jobs and internships this summer, there seem to be many screenings to go through before one lands a position. The phone interview, in particular, can be daunting as the potential employee might not know what to expect, especially without the face-to-face interaction.

The ACS Careers Blog has some good suggestions on how to ace the phone interview. I especially like their recommendation to use a land-line number to ensure that the conversation won't be "dropped." The ending of the phone conversation matters too as one can summarize her qualifications and get a concrete time line for the next step in the interviewing process.

Prepared and you are on your way to a successful venture:
