Virtual interviewing requires some advanced planning to avoid issues and ensure success. To guarantee your virtual interview goes smoothly, practice using the technology you will be using with a friend a few days in advance.

• Determine where you're going to sit with a very neutral background and login to whatever platform you will be using (Zoom, Teams etc.).

• Test your microphone and camera.

• Ask your friend how your tone and volume speaking sound from their computer.

Taking the time to do the practice will help you be confident during the actual interview and show the interviewer your technical planning and execution capabilities too.
