The interview is tomorrow!

So you've done your research, have your list of questions prepared. What else do you need to do ahead of time?

• Make sure you have a quiet -and private- place to talk on the telephone- no barking dogs, no cars driving by, no one knocking on the door of your RV right in the middle of the conversation.
• If you are already working somewhere, make sure you have sufficient time set aside for the
  interview.
• Charge your cell phone battery.
• Review your notes and questions ahead of time. Have them printed out in large print so you can see them and check them off as they are answered. Leave space for notes.

Fifteen minutes or so before your scheduled time, be at the location where you plan to take the call. Get all your notes out, water to sip, make a last pit stop and review your notes one last time. Take time to think about working there and get excited! Even though it is a telephone interview, your enthusiasm (or lack of) will show in your voice.

Doing the interview standing up will help increase your energy. Look up, not down. Smile and use your hands. Speak with energy. All that will help convey positive qualities.

Use your prior research and preparation to find out all you need to know during the interview to detemine if this job is a match. And most of all, remember to sell yourself! Jaimie
