The Critical first HR phone screen or making it to the next round of the HR American Idol
6 comments
It is Critical when you do your first phone screen with a company you know your goal in doing the phone Screen, and also what the goal of Human resources is, as they are totally different.
Your goal is simple, to get a second interview!
You must speak on the phone again with a potential decision maker or in person with a peer of the hiring manager or directly with the hiring manager.
Your phone interview is not to get the job. You may be many steps away from getting the job, and if you get too far ahead of yourself, you may never make it to another interview. Walk through the interviewing process a step at a time.
