Question about phone call anxiety: how do I sound more confident when I am dying inside? I'm a school leaver so I don't have much work experience and that's affecting my confidence, but mostly I just panic when I have to talk to an interviewer on the phone. I know it sounds stupid, but I hate my voice and how I sound. How do I create a more confident 'phone persona'? I think it's killing my chances at getting a job.
