Make sure that children, pets and other sources of interruption will be out of the room. Keep a glass of water nearby. Phone interviews can often last a half-hour to an hour and be sure to have your résumé in front of you. Do your best to be personal, but don’t overdo it by, say, trying to tell a joke.What should you do with your rétsumé during a phone interviewA. Keep it in front of you.B. Read it out if required.C.
