Re: Job interview question...

I have had some and I have done them before.

For me a phone interview was great. I think I felt more confident on the phone - to me it was less intimidating. They asked me similar questions to what you normally expect on a regular interview.

As an interviewer, I use them to make sure me and the candidate are on the same page so I do not waste either of each other's time (pre-screening). I basically ask some simple questions to see if they really know what they are talking about (resume isn't exaggerated) and if they can articulate what they do. (I mostly hire computer support people so they need to have good communication skills to train and help users effectively.) I will tell them about the job (if they sound like a possibile match) and make sure they are interested in doing it before bringing them in. Sometimes I ask about salary requirements as well (make sure we are on the same page).
