How to prepare yourself and your environment for the interview call
Environment
Check your surroundings!
- Be in a well-lit room, avoid lighting directly above your head or from behind.
- Ensure the background of your webcam looks professional and is not distracting.
- For instance, a white wall is good. Ensure there is no loud distracting noise in the background.
System and Connection
Check and prepare your system and connection at least 1 hour before the interview.- Updates: check your system or Zoom app to ensure everything is updated!
- Audio: check your audio, make sure your microphone is audible and your headset/headphones are working loud and clear.
- Video: check your webcam quality and test it to ensure it's working properly.
- Internet: make sure your connection is stable.
Note: Interviews need to be attended from a Desktop/Laptop as Mobile devices are not reliable for calls.
