So I got a phone call today about a job I wanted

and I thought it was just to set up an interview- ( that was what the person I spoke with at the Job expo said)

but it turned into a phone interview and I was prepared for it and I don't think I did my best

she said she was passing my resume along to the district manager- but still- I don't think I wowed her

I am so upset

maybe I should just stick to my current field

I had a phone interview once and I did not think I 'wowed" the interviewer. That is the current job I have now so you never know....try to stay positive, something will turn up

In my experience for formal phone interviews they usually set up a day and time. I wouldn't put too much weight on it. It might be more informal then you think.

What kind of position was it for??

Beth-don't beat yourself up. It's natural to feel insecure, it's a new field.

Phone interviews are never as good as the real thing. You will get a face to face and wow them!

Oh I hated pharma interviews. They act like you're trying to get a job in the CIA. Do you really need to interview me 6 times??? I mean really!!!

Sorry, Beth!!!! Hey, lots of travel in pharm sales, I think. Do you like to travel for work? I do some travel, but not much.

I wouldn't worry. I would not consider that an interview really, more of a formality. I think they were just trying to get a feel for you to see if they should bring you in for a real interview. The person was probably screening potential clients for someone else.

You are you own worst critic. I'm sure you did great. And those jobs have many interview levels, so its very possible you are on to the next round!
