  2. Online interviews are becoming the norm in today's era of social media and Zoom meetings. Even before the COVID-19 outbreak, surveys revealed that almost 75% of hiring managers utilized video interviews to engage with top prospects. It's difficult to know what to anticipate if you've never had a online interview before. Even if you're not in the same room, how can you keep cool, make your pitch, and wow the interviewer? Here are some pointers to remember: www.resumeww.com

  3. 1. Ensure that your camera and speakers are in working condition. You can conduct thorough background study on a potential business partner. However, if you have technological problems during the interview, it will reflect negatively on you. Avoid this entirely by thoroughly testing your technology before to the interview to verify that it is ready to go when you need it. www.resumeww.com

  4. 2. Create a peaceful atmosphere for the interview. During the interview, you should keep distractions to a minimum and project a sense of serenity, order, and professionalism. With kids and pets running around, or if you're in a noisy place in the house, that's not going to happen. Instead, make sure you have a quiet area that is appropriately staged with sufficient lighting whenever your interview is scheduled. Also, close your windows to block off highway noise and switch off your cell phone. Additionally, stay away from the pre-set backdrops seen on many virtual platforms, since they can appear phony and distracting. www.resumeww.com

  5. 3. Do your homework in advance. When you're addressing a question, you want to be entirely focused on the hiring manager, not surfing the web for an appropriate response. It's for this reason that you should prepare ahead of time, just as you would for a regular face-to-face interview. The organization, the role, and the leadership team should all be researched. Make a list of your thoughts and questions. Have a copy of your résumé on hand as well. One advantage of a virtual interview is that you can have all of these objects close by without the recruiting manager seeing. You may then easily consult them throughout the interview if necessary. www.resumeww.com

  6. 4. Arrange a meeting with a friend to do a mock interview with you. A virtual interview might be more uncomfortable than an in-person interview, especially if you've never done one before. To practice, have a friend or family member rehearse and execute a mock interview utilizing the same digital platform as the hiring manager. You'll gain confidence in the medium while also receiving comments on areas that should be improved. You may even film the fake interview and examine it afterwards to identify distracting tendencies and correct them before the real interview. www.resumeww.com

  7. 5. Show your professionalism. Dress for the role, donning a suit and ensuring sure your hair is nice, just like you would for an in-person interview. Also, avoid frequent interview blunders like complaining about a previous supervisor or fidgeting. Instead, keep your body language under order by sitting up straight and smiling towards the camera, which should be at eye level. This gives the appearance that you're a serious candidate for the job. www.resumeww.com
