Why Do We Still Love Using the Phone? Exploring Its Real Benefits

Dear friends,

Please find an outstanding presentation describing the advantages of using the phone.

So keep on using the phone! 😛

I agree - another thing to add: phone interviews are priceless when recruiting for remote locations. I usually always prefer the face-to-face interview, but phone interviews are advantageous - more so than in person, especially for filling positions in which the employee is primarily on the phones, for example, call center/customer service jobs.

Even in times when I could have done an in-person interview, I chose to conduct the interview over the phone to get a sense of what the candidate would be like if they were selected and actually in the role.
