Phone screen interview

• 15-30min
• Should cover:
  • introductions
  • brief discussion on their background
  • Candidate’s interests and desired role
  • details about the company and role
  • Next steps
• It's a basic check on their experience, motivation, and intelligence.
• People should more often pass this step than stop here. If you are rejecting a lot of people at this stage, you need to looker earlier in the process: the JD, resume filters, etc.
