telefoniintervjuu

A telefoniintervjuu, or telephone interview, is a preliminary screening tool used by employers to assess candidates before inviting them for a more in-depth in-person or video interview. It is typically a shorter, more informal conversation conducted over the phone, usually lasting between 15 to 30 minutes.

The primary purpose of a telefoniintervjuu is to gauge a candidate's basic qualifications, communication skills, and overall suitability for a role. Recruiters or hiring managers use this opportunity to verify key information from the resume, ask about salary expectations, and understand the candidate's career goals and motivations for applying. It also allows the candidate to learn more about the company and the position.

During a telefoniintervjuu, candidates are generally asked standard questions about their experience, skills, and why they are interested in the job. They should be prepared to articulate their strengths and how they align with the job requirements. It is important to ensure a quiet environment, have a copy of your resume handy, and dress professionally as if it were an in-person interview, as confidence and demeanor can still be perceived over the phone. A successful telefoniintervjuu significantly increases the chances of progressing to the next stage of the hiring process.
