In the past, if you want to talk to someone across an ocean you should be prepared to pay. That is until Rebtel and Talkster developed an ad-supported free service to make these once outrageously expensive calls completely free. The service works by creating local phone numbers for both parties. One party would call a local number generated for them and the other party would have to hang up the phone and call back to their local number. The call is routed through a VoIP server and is at no cost to either party if completed correctly."

Five Tips to Ace a Phone Interview | Entry-Level Rebel | BNET: "Last week we pondered whether it’s practical to look for a job long-distance, or whether it’s better to relocate and then begin your hunt for work after you’ve settled in. If you’ve weighed the issue and decided to apply to distant gigs, then there’s one thing you need to be prepared for: the phone interview. Of course, a first screening telephone interview is common for work closer to home as well, which makes blog CubeRules’ tips on acing a phone interview even more useful. The basic advice:
Print out a copy of your resume - After you send out 20 or 30 resumes over a couple of weeks, you start to not remember exactly what’s on the resume…. In addition, your resume should have good work results listed with your work experience (”improved cycle time by 20 percent, resulting in $100K savings to the department).

Phone Tips To Get Things Done - Professional Phone Skills

Phone Tips To Get Things Done - Professional Phone Skills: "The following are some tips that will help you improve your phone voice and technique.
1. THIRD RING RULE: Answer the phone by the third ring or make sure you voice mail is set to pick up by the third ring. Today people are not inclined to wait much longer and will assume you are not available and hang up. Remember, as much as we think we don't like voice mail, we like the option of leaving a message.
2. PROFESSIONAL GREETING: Remember the 87% rule above and make a good impression. Be aware of what you are going to say in the greeting. Then practice and rehearse BEFORE you leave the greeting on your answering machine. Be short and to the point. Don't drag out the greeting. It is obvious you are 'Out of the office or away from your desk' otherwise you would answer your phone. Consider leaving such statements out of your greeting unless you are actually away from the office, then say so and leave a date for your return. I recommend that you leave clear instructions as to what information you need from the caller. Reminder the caller to leave their phone number, best time to return the call and a brief subject.
3. PREPARE THEN ANSWER: Have a note pad and pen by your phone at all times. Write down the caller's name and use it during the conversation."

Cell Phone Tips and Tricks - Students and Cell Phones

Cell Phone Tips and Tricks - Students and Cell Phones: "Cell Phones and Time Management
Reminders and alarms are some of the most useful tools on a cell phone, but they are also the least appreciated.
Most cell phones come with a scheduler to allow you to set an alarm at a certain time of day or on a certain date. You can set alarms to remind you of an established daily homework time to keep you from chatting right through your work time. For instance, you can set up a beeper that goes off every night at 7.
You could also use calendar reminders to notify you when projects and assignments are due. These reminders can be set up weeks and months ahead of time."
