那么，下面是一些小妙招，让你致胜电话面试：

TIP No. 1: Be prepared to explain every job transition. An HR screener will likely want you to step him or her through your résumé. Why did you make this or that choice of career direction? Why make that lateral move, or how did you get that promotion? And what about those short job stints or gaps between jobs? Be sure to have a copy of the same rèsumè you submitted next to you and/or on your screen in front of you before the interview begins.
小妙招1：准备好回答每一次换工作的经历。招聘人员一定会希望你介绍简历。你为什么会做出这样或那样的职业选择？为什么最近要换工作？你为什么那次会升职？这些短暂的工作空窗期是怎么回事？一定要保证面试开始之前，手头有一份简历的复印件，或者提前打开电脑里的简历，放在自己面前。

Tip No. 2: Be prepared to explain everything on your rèsumè. Any bullet point on your rèsumè might pique the curiosity of your interviewer. Be prepared to give more detail, but don’t take too much time on any one answer. After a few sentences, ask: “Is this what you were after, or would you like me to go in a different direction or provide greater detail?”
小妙招2：准备好回答关于简历的所有问题。简历上任何信息都可能引起面试官的好奇。准备好进行细节解释，但千万不要在一个问题上花费太多时间。说完几句话后，问一句：“您问的是这个意思吗？您想我从另一个方面解释吗？您需要我再仔细一点解释吗？”
