Planning and Preparation is the key to success and to ensure a good first impression! Read on for our Top Video Interview Tips!...
Check it works!! Practice in advance not 5 mins before the interview time!!
Arrive 10 minutes early as you would if the interview was face to face.
Have the camera/phone ideally on a flat surface and the light in front of you not from behind otherwise you will be in shadow.
Try to have a clutter free background, close the door to the room. Try to find a quiet spot.
Treat the interview as if it were in person – dress appropriately.
Have a pen and paper on the desk, copy of the job spec and your CV in front of you.
Its ok to take notes and refer to your notes during the interview! You could inform the interviewer you have notes, so they don’t think you are looking away!
Try to using eye contact as much as you can!
