As someone who did a long time ago, it's less that it's difficult and more than it gets to be soul-scarring. Even if you're a cantankerous person with zero phone or people skills, getting good at it takes no effort. Hell, I still mostly dislike talking on the phone for long periods of time unless it's with my loved ones/BFFF's, but thanks to that period of my life taking calls, I did acquire some soft skills. Most interviews have become less an existential cataclysm of untold proportions and more of a friendly exercise in knowing when to shut the gently caress up and let the other person talk. You basically just need to learn that it's a temporary measure while you get something else going. The moment you get the offer/contract, start looking for other jobs after a month or two.
