Virtual Interview Tips

Test Your Technology

• Make sure your computer works and has an updated version of the meeting application.
• If using a laptop, fully charge it to 100-percent battery life and/or have it plugged in.
• Ensure your internet connection is secure and reliable.
• Be prepared with phone numbers so you can quickly transition to a voice call in the event your computer or internet fails.
• Confirm there is no echo or feedback from other microphones in the space you will be using. Have a headset in case issues develop with sound quality or ambient noise.
• Speak slowly and enunciate clearly, as connection and microphone issues can degrade sound quality.

Arrange Your Space

• Organize the room so your camera does not show anything you do not want the interviewers to see.
• Pay attention to lighting. Test different camera angles so your face is not in shadow.
• Ensure a quiet location. Post a "do no disturb" sign on the door.

Limit Distractions

• Mute phone and computer alerts and avoid multitasking during the interview.
• Block your schedule for at least 30 minutes before and after the interview in order to be on time and stay present for the entire interview. If you have a series of interviews, consider taking the entire day off to minimize distractions.
• Keep in mind that personal mannerisms such as scratching your head or face, adjusting glasses, rocking or swaying in your chair and fixing hair become more noticeable when you are being viewed on camera from the chest up. Even these simple movements can become distracting.
• Maximize eye contact by looking directly into the camera rather than at the computer screen.
