How to deal with telephone interviews

l Keep calm and resolve tension

When receiving the interview, you may be in class, or maybe in the subway. In such a situation without any preparation, you cannot panic first, you should calm down as soon as possible, and then tell HR with a very positive and friendly voice:

"Mr. Zhang, thank you very much for calling. If you don't mind, can you call me after 5 minutes. I have a good phone signal here, I will change the quiet place. Or can I tell me your phone, can I tell me your phone, I will call you back within 5 minutes? "

Under normal circumstances, HR will agree to hit it after a few minutes, so that you can make some preparations in a short period of time. If you are really not convenient to answer the phone, you must ask HR's call so that you can call HR later to confirm the phone interview.

It is natural to feel nervous during the phone interview, but try to let yourself relax slowly. Because HR can only judge your expression through the sound on the phone, you must control your psychology and emotions so that you will not mess with square inches when speaking.

l Pay attention to speech speed and communicate in time

During the telephone interview, the voice is very important. Don't recite the content you have prepared too flat, mechanically. Do not speak too fast when answering questions, and the volume can be enlarged appropriately, because the sound in the general phone is relatively small. The pronunciation and vomiting should be clear, and the expression should be as simple as possible.

If you do n’t hear clearly or do n’t understand the problem, then the correct approach is very polite to ask the interviewer to repeat the question again. Do n’t understand pretending to avoid answering questions.

l to record important information during the telephone interview

If conditions permit, you should prepare pen and paper during the telephone interview, while listening to the interviewer's instructions and questions, write down important information, including: the company name, the interviewer's name, the main points of the interview question, and further Interview arrangements and so on.

l The necessary etiquette for calling

During the entire phone interview, we must pay attention to some etiquette of calling, which may also be the details of the HR assessment. When answering the phone, you should say "Hello" first, you can't just "feed".

During the telephone interview, I want to express respect for HR and thank him for his work. For example, "Thank You for Giving Me this oppointunity", "Thanks for your time and consciousitive. It is real nice talking to you" and so on.

Finally, before the telephone interview, you must remember to thank the interviewer to show your professionalism, and at the same time to ensure that the interviewer has your correct contact information so that you can contact you if you have the opportunity to further interview.

l Grasp the opportunity to ask the interviewer

In the final stage of the interviewer, the interviewer may give you the opportunity and time for questions. At this time, you must seize the final self -display opportunity. You can prepare some questions or depth in advance. If you are not prepared in advance, you can ask HR to get further notifications.
