The process of the interview does not change. Read our tips for a successful interview. However, during the video interview, communication becomes the most crucial point. Speak slowly and clearly because there are sometimes delays in the video connection. Check that you are using the same document as your contact, this will allow fluidity in the exchange on projects. You can simply indicate the page numbers. Or, the other possibility is to present your portfolio by performing a screen sharing. So you will be sure that your interviewer follows your presentation with the right document in front of you. Be present, smile and don’t be afraid to show your personality.
5. The follow up
In the same way as face-to-face interviews, it is essential to follow up after the interview. If you are going through a recruitment consultant, call them or send them an email after the interview to give them your comments on the job, the company and your feelings about the interview. If you applied directly, follow up by email to thank the interviewer(s) and let them know how interested you are in the job.
By taking the time to properly prepare your video interviews, they can be as successful as physical interviews. Recruitment strategies and hiring are essential to business growth. Starting the process through video interviews allows companies to get a head start before returning to the office.
