Give A Great First Impression In A Virtual Interview
Studies show that recruiters decide whether they want to move forward with a candidate in the introduction and the rest of the time is to validate that decision.
82% of hiring managers employ virtual interviews (Indeed). You will encounter a virtual interview one way or another, so let’s prepare you for it!
- Be early: 2-5 minutes early to check your tech issues and show reliability.
- Smile and be friendly: act human and personable! Start the conversation and show your confidence and excitement.
- Make eye contact: look directly at the camera, not your screen or elsewhere.
- Dress the part: wear a professional outfit and look tidy to remind the interviewer that you are professional, and more importantly, yourself that the interview is important!
- Organize your space: make sure your room is organized with no clutter or inappropriate belongings. You can blur your background or add a virtual background.
