Interview Tips

Prepare for a phone screening in events operations

Added to the archive on 15 November 2026.

Use the first call to explain your interest in events operations and check the practical details.

Keep the advert, your CV and a short note of your availability close by. If asked what interests you, link your answer to a real responsibility around guest lists, supplier timings and venue logistics. Give one example and pause to let the recruiter ask another question.

Clarify before agreeing to the next step

Ask about late finishes, weekend work and venue transport if they affect your ability to attend or start. Confirm how you will receive the next instructions and repeat back the date if you book a meeting. Add the details to your notes after the call.
