Question

Sheila always has her cell phone in her hand. She thinks it is important to respond to people immediately because that makes them feel important. Sheila never wants to miss anything that might be happening online, either. When it is time to go for her job interview, what should Sheila do with her phone?

A.
Continue into the room with her phone so that the interviewer knows she will always answer his calls.

B.
Put her phone on silent but continue to receive and send texts throughout the interview.

C.
Put her phone on silent but only answer a call if it is an emergency.

D.
Completely put away her cell phone during her interview.

Answer 1

Answer:

I would say D

Explanation:

If she has her phone with her, it is only going to serve as a distraction, so anything that pops up will divert her attention away from the interview. This won't look good at all and it most likely will cost her the job.

Answer 2

D. Completely put away her cell phone during her interview. It’s unprofessional.
