CQ#3: How can I be confident during a phone interview?
Quick Answer:
A calm, quiet environment is best when speaking with a potential employer. Unfortunately, not every callback is timed exactly when you would like it to be, especially if you are working at another job when the call comes in. If possible, try to schedule your phone interview for a time when you will be away from your desk, such as during a lunch break. If possible, find a quiet meeting room to duck into when a call comes in to minimize disturbances and prevent coworkers from overhearing your conversation. If a call comes in unexpectedly and it is not the right time or environment for you to conduct the interview, don't panic. Most callbacks begin with the interviewer asking if it is a good time to talk for you. Instead of rushing through the interview under stress or trying to keep your voice or the noise around you down, inform the caller that you're in the middle of something and ask if there is another convenient time when you could call back.
