if this is the first interview then, perhaps yes it is a weed out process. there are instances where circumstance on the part of the employer makes it necessary to have a phone interview. in my case my phone interview was with the director on a day in which the building is closed for business. it was also less than 10 minutes, another reason why to conduct an interview over the phone and not in person.

Also, do employers sometimes skip that step for qualified applicants?
Just wondering, 'cause I have one tomorrow. :-)
