You call up your friend and get their voicemail. Of course your joker of a friend has a hilarious novelty message on their machine. You laugh, and leave a message and start to think maybe you should "spice up" your voicemail message.
WAIT!
A novelty voicemail message is great for your friends and family but if you're looking for a job your potential employer doesn't want to hear your attempt to rap about when you will return a message.
Here are a few examples of professional sounding voicemail messages to use while your'e on the job hunt.
