Tip 2: Making an impact in a video interview

Today, many organizations are using video interviews. Before attending a video interview, please remind yourself that this is the same as in-person interview and should be taken just as seriously.

Preparation:

• Find a quiet and undisturbed space
• Dress formally, and try to avoid any clothing with patterns as it can look distorted on camera
• Make sure you have sufficient lighting
• Test the system environment before actually attending the interview
• Ensure your device is fully charged
• Doing a test before the interview is always good to ensure your feel comfortable

During the video interview:

• Connect to the video link five minutes before the interview
• Read or listen clearly to questions and pay attention to the time limit if it's a one-way video interview
• Maintain eye contact with the camera and keep smiling
• Maintain good posture
• Speak confidently about your experiences
• If it's a recorded interview, make sure your video has been successfully submitted before closing your browser

Be prepared and be calm.
