Introductio:
There are certain rules to follow when making what could be a crucial contact. Instructions
Steps
1-Step One
Consider any contact with a prospective employer an interview situation.
2-Step Two
Talk to the receptionist, secretary or assistant as you would your possible boss.
3-Step Three
Make your call from a quiet place. Shushing crying children or dealing with rambunctious pets during the call is awkward, as is having your current boss suddenly appear in the middle of the conversation.

4-Step Four
Be prompt if your prospective employer requested that you call at a certain time. Punctuality will never go out of style.
5-Step Five
Prepare yourself to be on a speakerphone or part of a conference call. It's almost like addressing a crowd.
6-Step Si
Have your notes handy if the call will be a working situation, or about a problem you've been asked to solve.
7-Step Seven
Have paper, pen and any other necessary materials (résumé, references, phone numbers) on hand.
- Focus on having a calm demeanor, an audible voice and relaxed attitude. These may be critical matters in the hiring process.
- Don't ask the prospective employer to hold while you pick up call waiting.
- Address Books
- Phone Books
- Phone Books
- Telephones
- Spiral Notebooks
- Writing Pens
