Orange Lightning

Research the company and practice answers, prepare your own questions and do a trial run to shine in your virtual interview.

1

Tech Check

Have a backup plan in case of technical glitches, like having a phone number readily available to switch to a phone call interview.

2

Professional Spot

 Find a quiet, well-lit location with a clean background, avoid busy areas or anything distracting in the frame.

3

Dress for Success

Even though it's virtual, dress professionally just like you would for an in-person interview.

4

Research the Company

Learn as much as you can about the company, their mission, values, and the specific role you're interviewing for.

5

Practice Makes Perfect

This will help you articulate your thoughts clearly and confidently during the interview.

Prepared with Questions

Having thoughtful questions prepared for the interviewer demonstrates your interest and initiative.

7

Do a Trial Run

Simulate the interview environment by doing a practice video call with a friend or family member.
