>> Well for one thing, just stand up when you're doing the interview.
And to have energy in your voice.
Because all people have to go on is your voice.
So think about your voice quality.
The amount of pauses you make.
Whether you're making sense [chuckles].
Think in terms of full sentences, but not too long.
And how that communication would sound to someone
who does not have the chance to actually see you in person.
Because remember, they don't have the body language.
They won't be able to see a smile.
So if you need to smile, smile on the phone as you're talking; stand up.
Don't sound breathy.
Have a lower -- lower your voice tone if you need to so that you don't sound over-pitched.
So think about that.
Practice it.
Practice before you have your voice phone.
Record yourself and see how you sound, and then try to make some corrections.
Get all the um, like, likes, and those kinds of fillers out of your speech
and practice that before the interview.
