Are you really ready for your video interview?

Are you really ready for your video interview? πŸŽ₯

You never get a second chance to make a first impression and that goes for video calls too.

Here are Chris' top tips to ACE your video interview and please trust him; if you do these things it will make ALL the difference.

😺 Dress to match the company dress code. Ask your recruiter what the dress code is or have a look online. If unsure always lean toward the smarter side of smart-casual πŸ˜‰

😺 Test the video tech and connection prior to the interview.

😺 Ensure your background environment is tidy. If not consider a virtual background - these can take the pressure off you too.

😺 Make sure your camera is at the right height! Don’t have it set too low so you are looking down, you want it to be at eye level.

😺 Have good lighting, you wouldn’t interview in the dark in person so don’t do it online! πŸ˜‚

😺 Ensure where you are sat is quiet with no distractions.

Relax and enjoy it! Take pleasure in the fact that you have been able to do the interview in your slippers! πŸ˜‚

GOOD LUCK!!! We hope this helps.....
