Tips for interviewing using conference calling

Conference call services are useful not only for business meetings, but also interviews and social calls. If you want to conduct an interview over the telephone, you can make use of the teleconferencing services provided by reputed companies.

Interviewing, whether it is face to face or over the telephone, is a skill. Within just a few minutes you are required to assess the qualities and aptitude of a person and make a judgement on whether the candidate is suitable for the job and is a fit for the organisation. These days more and more companies are relying on conference calls to find the right candidate. This is especially relevant in a global economy where the candidate with the right skill sets could be located anywhere in the world. It is illogical and expensive to get everyone to come to your office premises for a face to face interview for every round.

Conference calling is not just for business users

Businesses have always used conference calls as one of the most cost effective means of communicating with employees, customers and business partners who are spread all over the world. And they do that without even stepping out of the office. This saves a lot of time and money on travel and accommodation, especially if the people you need to communicate with on a regular basis are not based out of your local office.

Call conferencing is used extensively to gather members of a project team to get daily updates, immediate feedback about a businesses decision etc. Through a voice conference, miscommunication is eliminated because all delegates can be present at the meeting. There is no dilution in communication as is expected when someone relays the information or even when it is read from a written summary.

Audio conferencing and options explained

Conference calls have revolutionised the way people communicate with others located in different geographical locations. By allowing three or more people to communicate simultaneously no matter where they are located, conference call services have truly made a difference in business and personal communications.

A teleconference works by connecting all the individual callers to a conference bridge which is a sophisticated server maintained by the teleconferencing service provider. The bridge acts like a telephone that is capable of answering multiple telephone calls at the same time. Conferencing services also include advanced features such as call recording, audience polls and surveys, in addition to the basic call conferencing facility.

How to get free conference calls

Conference calls have now become so much a part of today’s business scenario that it is difficult to imagine that just a few years ago, people found it difficult to communicate simultaneously with others who were located in different parts of the globe. Call conferencing helps people connect to each other, no matter how many members there are, whenever they want, wherever they are located. That is the power of teleconferencing.

Most of the conferencing solutions offered by reputed conferencing service providers are easy to use and affordable. Telephone conferencing is so commonplace now that even free conference calls can be made through toll free numbers. Some conference call service providers give a toll free number that you can dial to start phone conferencing. Toll free conference calls can be done at a moment’s notice and there is no need to make a reservation.

If we all saved £11 per call…

A quick analysis of our CDRs (Call Statistics) for February shows the average conference call duration was 27 minutes and 9 seconds.

OK, so that’s a pretty interesting number in itself but when you translate that to the cost of dialling an equivalent “free” conference call service hosted on an 08 number from a mobile phone, it represents £10.80 per person, per call. So, if there were five people on your last 30 minute conference call, all dialling in from mobiles, let’s hope you saved yourselves £54 by using WHYPAY?

Conference bridge

A conference bridge is what you call the equipment that makes it possible to converge a number of audio and video connections to a single destination. The conference bridge receives inbound signals from the telephone switch and confirms the same with a return signal. It is a conference bridge that makes it possible for conference calls to be conducted for any number of locations, with any number of connections.

A conference bridge is basically a device that connects multiple circuits to make a conference call. They are also available for key telephone systems and PBX systems.
