To help you improve your interviewing skills, we've prepared a short list of tips for you to keep in mind while going through your interview.
Tips for a Great Interview
-
Remember to dress in professional or business casual attire. Even if you are not there in person, keep in mind those first impressions count, even during a video interview.
-
Remember to relax and smile. Look at the camera as much as possible.
-
During a video interview it can be hard to remember to look straight ahead, but it's important to do this. Don't let your eyes wander; imagine you are speaking to a person and not just a screen.
-
Spend time before your interview thinking of examples to questions you may be asked.
-
Read the job ad and/or position description so you are clear on the skills required for the job. These are the skills they will be assessing at interview and will base the questions around.
-
Research the employer. Depending on the organisation, your research should give you an understanding of their business, values, key projects, markets, client base and challenges.
-
Remember that once you login you can practice before you record the interview.
