    Can be tricky, especially if on a poor line. But in general, hit and miss.

    Just got a mail from the agent, "You have not been selected for the next stage" :( ,I think they are a bit awkward as you said a poor line and you can't pick up on visual cues...

      Hi All, Just had a phone interview. They always leave me with a feeling that I have just said the wrong thing. I think the guy on the end of the phone was expecting someone who had more High Frequency design experience than I have :( . Also this new set up with the emoticons hidden :( I don't really like mind you it will stop some ridden messages I suppose need :beer: (hey still works!)

      I smoked through a phone interview once. She didn't say anything till the end of the interview, then she said she heard me smoking throughout - and would I do that in a normal interview? I replied I would if it was held in my house which this one half had been. I didn't get the job.

          It wasn't a technical job or anything, in fact it was before I went to Uni, I think it was to be a logistics manager at Tesco or something similar that I didn't really want.
