W: Hi, Tony, you look worried. Anything wrong with you?
M: Well, nothing much. It is just about the interview I am going to have.
W: Oh, that’s a piece of cake for you. You have been through a lot of them, and with success.
M: Yes, but this one is different. It’s going to be a phone interview.
W: I see. Let me give you some suggestions. I attended a lecture about phone interviews just last week.
M: Great. So, what should I do?
W: Who will start the call and when?
M: The employer, but the time is not set. This is painful.
W: Then, some preparations are necessary. Paste a copy of your resume on the wall near the phone and something about the employer and the company.
M: Oh, what for?
W: It can be helpful when you are answering the phone. Plus, it can make you more focused and consistent. This will increase your value to the interviewer.
M: OK. What else?
W: Keep a mirror nearby.
M: What for? The employer can’t see me any way.
W: No, he can’t. But you can see yourself in the mirror and smile to it. This can help you improve your telephone presence. People will feel you much friendlier, more interested.
M: That’s new. I am going to try it.
W: Stand up while you are answering the phone.
M: Oh, I think sitting down can make me more relaxed.
W: Maybe, but in an interview, you don’t want to be too relaxed, do you? And it is said when you stand up, you can improve your posture and your response time. This can make the interviewer believe you are very enthusiastic.
M: It makes a lot of sense to me now. Thank you.
W: Don’t mention it.
