  • Hi Marina,

    Firstly well done in getting the interview - they must be impressed by your CV. I conduct a lot of telephone interviews and I find that the 'best' interviews are the ones where the candidate listens to what I am asking them and clearly answers the questions.

    I suggest to research the company - be clear on not just why you want to do the job but why you would like to work for that organisation. Then be familiar with the job description and have examples to show where you have previous experience and/or would know how to approach the areas of responsibility.

    Be clear on what you can offer to the company and role, and show your interest perhaps with some relevant questions if they have not been answered during the interview.

    I'm sure that others will have more advice to offer you. Good luck!
