I've done several phone interviews. The interview process for the job I'll soon be starting began with a phone interview. So I guess I'm good at them.

Don't do your phone interview with a cell phone if you can help it, unless you're in a place where the signal is very strong.

If you have a headset, use it. Test it out beforehand so you are certain that you can be heard clearly.

Dress up. You don't have to wear a suit, as the interviewer will not be seeing you, but you shouldn't just wear pajamas and fuzzy bunny slippers. Dressing up puts you in a more professional mindset.

Keep your notes in front of you - your resume, cover letter, info on the company, and some scratch paper and a pen.

Good luck!
