Why is the voicefile important? 

The voicefile is an essential part of your profile. With the voicefile you can prove that you communicate well, that you have a clear pronunciation, that you seem likeable and open. You have the opportunity to better express your personality. Additionally, with your voicefile you can test if your webphone and/or softphone works. Before your voicefile, select whether you want to use the webphone or softphone and notice that the softphone only works with additional software.

Step 2:

Click "Add language" and select the desired language from the dropdown list


Step 3:

Add language level


Step 4:

Clicke “Record voice sample“ to start your voice recording

Step 5:

Clicke on “Start now“

  • Introduce yourself in your voice recording as you would in an incoming customer call
  • More important than the content of your voice recording is the quality, the pronunciation, and that you appear open and friendly
  • The recording should be at least 15 seconds long, as shorter recordings can lead to technical difficulties


Step 6:

Click „Answer call“ and make the voicefile

  • After accepting the call, you will hear a voice that guides you through the voice recording
  • At this point, the following template is provided for you to use as a guideline:

  • After the sound of a signal tone you start with your voice recording
  • After 30 seconds your voice recording will end automatically
  • If you are done earlier, confirm by clicking on the number 1 on the phone keypad

  • Your recording will then be played back automatically
  • Then click on the corresponding number, depending on how you want to continue:

    1 --> Replay recording
    2 -->  Make new recording
    3 --> Save voicefile


Step 7:

  • Once your voice recording has been saved, you can re-listen to it by clicking on the round button on the right of "Record voice sample"



  • If you are not satisfied, you can always start a new voice recording by clicking the "Record voice sample" button and the process will restart from the beginning
