What to expect from video interviews
Video interviews vary in format, ranging from simple calls to structured sessions via specialized platforms. Treat them with the same seriousness as in-person interviews.
How to prepare for video interviews
Research the company, the position, and highlight your strengths. Practice speaking clearly and confidently on camera and familiarise yourself with the video conferencing software you'll be using.
Top tips for video interview success
- Dress professionally, even if you're interviewing from home.
- Choose a clean and clutter-free background for a more polished impression.
- Conduct practice calls to ensure optimal sound and video quality.
- Demonstrate your tech-savviness by managing the call smoothly.
- Use non-verbal cues like smiling and active engagement to convey enthusiasm.
