While a ring to the desk phone of your interviewer may allow you to take a breath and collect yourself, yours will be unacceptable.
Don’t turn your phone off completely, you may find it comes in handy should you need to add a contact or appointment to your calendar. Instead, put it on silent.
Do not put your telephone set on vibrate. It could be as distracting as hearing your phone ring. Interviewers can hear the buzzing sound coming from your pocket every time you get a phone call or text message.
