Default what to expect from a phone interview

I missed their call today and I am going to call them back but I want to be prepared. I looked through a ton of these pages and I give up... Could someone please tell me what to expect from a phone interview?
Thanks

You get the idea. It's LOTS better!!! ;-)
Thanks a lot. I am ready to leave "MAC"/AMC after 22 years. It will be nice after being gone for 17 days, coming home and NOT having to work in the office!!!

How dare you mention "The Raptor" ...not a lot of love for Tony from those of us who lived through his tour of pain.

FWIW, I always enjoyed going through Diego (at least pre-9/11)...Burgers n Bytes, the Ship's Store, "a 15 pound fine for harming one of the Queen's chickens"...it was like an island paradise!

A good place to recover from a couple days in Clark, and recharge for your next visit!

MAC, Military Airlift Command, CBPO, Central (or was it Combined?) Base Personal Office, "Startlifter", the backbone of MAC, the C-141.

Consolidated.

Roger that on recharging after Clark. Anderson served much the same purpose!

Sorry for the unintended thread drift. Now back to your regularly scheduled hiring thread ====>
