Can You Handle Criticism? How to take it and how to give it: Especially as it relates to your job.

How To Ace the Employment Phone Screen: A Must-Have Skill in a Hyper-Competitive Marketplace
Paul J. Bailo
"This is not only a new company, but also a whole new industry; it's exciting for us, of course, but the real excitement generated by Phone Interview Pro will come from those who hone their skills using the service." - Paul Bailo
Getting to first base means getting past the phone screen. However, far too many individuals in career transition don't take this initial step seriously enough — thinking that it's not that important, that they can "wing-it." Think again. The initial phone interview, if nothing else, is intended to weed-out a large number of prospective candidates. If you don't take it as seriously as an in person, formal interview with the hiring manager, chances are you'll never get to that face-to-face with the employer.
Welcome to a Success Strategies podcast on Total Picture Radio with Peter Clayton reporting. Several weeks ago, our friend and frequent contributor, Judy Rosemarin, founder of Sense-Able Strategies, asked me to make a presentation at her ExecuNet senior executive networking meeting in New York on using social networks. At the meeting, I met Paul Bailo, who discovered a need while conducting his own job search: namely, advice on preparing and acing the phone interview screen.
Based on many hours of research, and his own experiences, Paul started Phone Interview Pro – a service for job seekers who want to perfect their telephone job interviewing skills. Paul recognized that while resume, interview preparation, and target company research assistance are commonly offered by outplacement and career counseling organizations, the importance of the telephone interview is often overlooked. In response to this, Phone Interview Pro has created a 250+ point phone evaluation.
Today, job candidates make initial contact with prospective employers via a telephone screen. The phone interview has become a crucial first-step in securing an in-person interview. While making a career transition, Paul Bailo determined that many job candidates needed a phone coaching resource. And Phone Interview Pro is the outgrowth of his experience. Paul's book, The Official Phone Interview Handbook was just released this month.
