Candidate tip
When I call you in response to a resume that you have submitted, you should have visited the client's website in advance of our call. I don't want to hear that you didn't have time. I don't want to hear that you have send out 100 resumes to 100 different jobs and you are not sure which one I represent.
Demonstrate that you are serious and interested. Or why should I assume that you are a serious and interested candidate?
