Tip 5: Turn Off Call-Waiting
During a telephone interview, choose a quiet, out-of-the-way area. It’s also important to turn off the call-waiting feature on your phone, or simply dial *70 before the call. Ask your operator if you have any further questions.
Example An interviewee forgot to turn off call waiting. While he was still on the air, friends who heard the interview began calling him. The clicking was constantly interrupting his conversation with the the host, resulting in a poor interview.
