How To Appear?
Highlight your qualifications and accomplishments using non-technical language - the HR professional is not necessarily an expert in your field.
Answer questions clearly and succinctly - personality is not as important at this stage of the process.
If asked about salary expectations, use a range – make sure you’ve done your homework in this area.
If conducted by phone, have your resume beside you to refer to for dates and names.

Telephone Interview
Telephone interviews are often used to screen candidates and is a good way to minimize travel expenses! They can be challenging because you aren’t able to rely on nonverbal communication or body language.

How To Appear?
Have your resume, organization information, points that you want to highlight, and list of questions you may want to ask in front of you - and have a short list of your accomplishments prepared to discuss.
Have a pen and paper handy to keep notes or write down any questions that come up; keep a glass of water beside you.
Speak slowly, enunciate clearly, and vary your voice tone, tempo, and pitch to keep the interviewers attention.
Provide short answers that make interchange easier on the phone; do not interrupt the interviewer.
Smile – even on the phone it will project a positive image.
