When you reach the hiring manager, you need to be fully prepared with a
structured script. It's time for action and brevity. The best thing you can do is have a ready script that you
can rely on--but don't use a script as something to actually recite from. It is merely a
dress rehearsal to give structure to your call so that you are fully prepared to
cover all the key points.
Although the basic approach can be altered, you should follow this
structure to keep your calls brief, yet productive:
Introduction - Who you are
Purpose - Why you are calling
Summary - A brief summary of your potential benefits
Action - The step(s) to be taken
Following are two primary approaches that can be used with this structure: the direct approach and the indirect approach.
