Online job interview: how to prepare

CV Majster knowledge base

A job interview held on platforms such as Teams, Zoom or Skype requires extra technical preparation from the candidate.

Besides preparing for the questions themselves, you need a stable internet connection, a working microphone and a video camera.

Your surroundings during the interview should be quiet, with a tidy and professional background. This helps the recruiter focus only on you.

Key tips:

  • Test the platform in advance: open the program and check the sound and video settings ten minutes before the interview.
  • Set up good lighting: the light source should be in front of you, not behind you.
  • Look into the camera lens: this builds eye contact with the recruiter, unlike looking at the screen.
  • Dress professionally: wear full business clothes, exactly as you would for an in-person interview.
