>> I did do that.
For about 6 years.
Yes, in my internship.
No I have not had a chance to read up on your company.
I apologize [beep].
[ Music ]
>> So what are we talking in terms of money Wally, let's talk cheddar.
I mean I've got a couple of puggles to feed [beep].
[ Music ]
>> I love that you're always in the news.
And you're only a stones throw away from the Chicken Shack on Third Avenue.
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Yeah [beep].
[ Music ]
>> [Chuckles] Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm. [Crunching] Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm. He said what [beep]?
[ Music ]
>> [Toilet flushing] okay Wally, good talking to you too.
I expect to be hearing from you now.
Alrighty. Take care [beep].
[ Music ]
>> Oh hey.
Didn't see you there.
Billy from Candidcrew.com.
Pretty sure I just blew that interview.
[ Music ]
>> Let's talk about what I should have done.
Step one is to dress as though the interview was actually face-to-face.
[ Background Room Sounds ]
>> Dressing for the part is a mental tactic that will put you in the right frame of mind.
Step two is finding a nice, quiet place to talk.
[ Music ]
>> [Silence] before you get on the phone,
you want to prepare some answers to common interview questions.
Like what are your strengths and weaknesses?
Also, you want to practice with a friend
to help identify any vocal mannerisms that you want to avoid using.
If you don't have any friends, simply record yourself speaking.
Before the call, grab your resume and have it handy
with bullet points that you want to discuss.
Also, you should have a glass of water next to you, just in case you get parched.
[ Drinking Sounds ]
>> Ideally you want to use a landline.
If you don't have a landline, make sure your cell phone is fully charged,
and that you're in an area of good reception.
Four bars [chuckles] alright.
And for crying out loud, stand up for the duration of your call.
It will create a more energetic and confident tone in your voice [pause] [music].
When your phone rings, make sure you answer with your full name and not just a hello.
[Phone ringing] hello?
This is William Gladding [music].
Oh, and be sure to smile.
Believe it or not, you can actually hear it over the phone [music].
You want to speak clearly and confidently on the call.
And avoid those crutch words like um and like.
It's better to have a little silence than to succumb to verbal diarrhea [pause].
Well thank you very much for your time.
Okay. Bye-bye.
One final thought.
Remember, the company only has your voice to go off of.
So make sure you use these tips to make it come across as confident as possible.

>> How do you feel about dogs in the office?
