Is there really a benefit to conducting phone interviews in advance of face-to-face interviews?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Post Job
Screen Resume (against a ranking system that I use on Excel)
Recruitment Questionnaire (again ranked)
Reference Checks of Top 5 (ranked)
Phone Interview of Top 5 (ranked) - to guage how well they engage on the phone - this sets the tone for employee relations, client relations, etc.
Face to Face Interview - I try to do it not in a stuffy office, but in a relaxed environment to really get to know the candidate. Getting the candidate to let their guard down is the best way to see if they will fit in the environment.

M$And I’m not talking only about his face, but his entire body. It is really important to see what he does and what his gestures are during an interview.
A friend of mine has an interesting job. He has to follow candidates during interviews. He follows their gestures and makes reports that he presents to interviewers.
He told me that even a feet gesture during an interview can say something about a candidate. And you can’t notice that while you use a phone.
