Types of InterviewsWhat types of
interviews arethere?
Not all interviews are a traditional, face-to-face encounterbetween you and a hiring manager. Preparation requireslearning how to be effective in a variety of interviewingformats.
How do Iprepare for aphone screen?
Phone Screen Interviews
Typically this is an initial interview with a recruiter todetermine whether you have the skills and experience to
justify bringing you in for a face-to-face interview. Many ofthe questions you will be asked are specific to help therecruiter better understand the depth and breadth of yourknowledge and interest. Be prepared to discuss:
Specifics about your current role
Challenges, likes, dislikes in current role
Knowledge of a specific area of expertise
Examples of how you handled certain situations
Interest in the position
Reason for looking at job opportunities
Current compensation/eligibility for incentive
Tips for the Phone Screen Interview
First impressions matter and being prepared is key. If a
recruiter calls, schedule another time to talk so you can beat your best. Then:
Review the job description and any correspondence
Think through your answers to anticipated questions
Highlight skills and achievements you want to mention
Identify questions you may have to better understandthe role and responsibilities
In addition to being prepared, a recruiter will be relying onyour telephone presence to glean a sense of your
personality. Put a smile in your voice, use inflection toavoid sounding monotone, and speak clearly with energyand enthusiasm. Listen carefully to the question, answerand then ask if you have provided enough detail.
