Before your interview, make sure you conduct research on the company and thoroughly review the job description for any clarification you may need on the position. Asking intelligent questions demonstrates to the interviewer your level of interest in their company and the position. Typically, pay is not discussed during phone interviews, so avoid asking any compensation-related questions in the phone interview. Be sure to ask at least one question.
