Interview
Find a place where you will not be interrupted, lay your CV/ any notes out in front of you so you can refer to them quickly if you need to.
Have a pen and paper in case you need to make a note of anything, such as the question being asked or something you think you might want to explore later.
Answer the phone with a smile! Smiling can help you to relax and, as a result, you will come across as more confident, friendly and assertive.
Talk clearly and distinctly and think about your pace; if the interviewer is asking you to repeat yourself it might be because you are talking too fast.
Try to connect with the interviewer in some way to build rapport. Consider what you might have in common and draw on this to create a dialogue
