A phone interview, really, for a director's job in Austin. First step in the process. It's been a few years since I've had to do one of these and I suck talking to people on the phone. Anyone want to wish me well or give me some last-minute advice?

Good luck!
If you wear slacks make sure you "shake" well after using the restroom.
Pee is an automatic no-hire. Trust me. :-\

I plan on wearing Spider-Man Underoos the whole time. However, I am NOT letting the person I'm interviewing with know that. And thanks, Corny.

Ask them what they're wearing, and if they don't play along, offer to tell them what you're wearing. Sexily. Also let them know you have a robe and wizard hat that you're willing to put on at any point in the conversation. Have an Arnold Schwarzenegger sound board ready by the phone just in case you want to know who their daddy is (and what does he do).

Don't nod along to what they're saying they can't see you, or is it just me that does that?
Also don't speak too fast.

Don't tell the Interviewer that in five years you see yourself doing their Wife/Son.

in all seriousness, make sure you're not distracted during it. They can tell if you're eating/peeing/watching tv/etc. while you're doing it. Research the people/company interviewing and, if you think it'd be valuable, jot down some things you want to talk about and answers you might give beforehand.
