Had my first interview via video conference today! One tip I’d add is before you start answering the questions, just do a quick check with your interviewers that they can see & hear you well 👍🏼

Thank you Linda, had a FaceTime interview yesterday 7/22 followed the steps. I looked like a KZread star. I looked like I was putting on a pod cast. The interviewer, Didn’t look so well. I got the offer. During the interview. Thanks u

I just got accepted in a position i really wanted! I literally watched all your videos and wrote down so many notes!! Thanks alot for your help ❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗

Linda, thanks to your Channel, I got my dream job. Had a video interview and your video advice was a huge help.

It’s about the background and lighting more than what color your wear. Crazy pattern is not okay for sure but black or white are absolutely fine.

Hey Linda, I just wanted to say Thank you. Your tips were extremely helpful. I am usually not very good at job interviews, but after watching this and some of your earlier videos I got very positive feedback from the interviewers. I think these simple tips made me stand out. And I ended up getting the job!

Yes! The laptop or camera has to be eye level! So important. I use books to get the right height. Thanks Linda!

I put books under my laptop too and made such a difference. Also I sat opposite window and put some lamp above so it soften the features. Brill tips. Most important do not have anything distracting in background. You can test it all way ahead of meeting/interview.

I heard the tip for stop looking at yourself is once you on the call you put a post it note over the small screen where you see yourself. It worked wonders.

I searched for quite a while on KZread until I found a straight forward, good quality video on interview call set up. Your videos are the best-straight to the point, down to earth, informative, and excellent quality. Thank you!

Great job, Linda! Lots of excellent advice without being self-serving or long-winded. Plus, I appreciate your modeling your own recommendations. Much appreciated!

Linda - you ALWAYS look good! Thanks for all the awesome tips and stay safe.

My boss surprised me with a 6:30am conference call.... I never did my makeup so fast in my life. 😂 Wonderful tips, you always give the best advice.

Thanks Linda for your helpful and excellent videos. I just came across your videos this evening. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and time with us. God bless!!! ♥️

You are my inspiration Linda!

Very good tips! Thanks for sharing. I would also recommend making sure you’re dressed just like you would an in person interview and if you have notes be sure to focus on maintaining eye contact and just use notes as reference points (not to read from them). Also be sure to test out your technology and internet connections before hand. Good luck job seekers! :)

Hi Linda! I watched your videos and incorporated your tips during my Zoom interview and got an offer!

Thank you for the video it’s a good teaching for the time we leave now.

Thank you Linda, I have experienced that the best way to look and sound natural in front of camera during online courses is using PPT Mirror app to convert your Powerpoint slides into teleprompter software, therefore you maintain eye contact and speak freely with the audience because you always have your whole concept in mind also your speech remains natural as you don't read word for word.

Hi Linda. That was a very informative video. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for the video, Linda! I agree that you should not need to purchase a new camera, although many people seem to recommend that. And lighting is definitely key!

Thank-you 😁

Hi Linda, thanks for the useful tips. Do you have any recommendation for the light to be used with laptop for video conference/interview? Mostly I found only those with cellphone. The one that can be clipped on the laptop doesn't seem to provide enough light. Or would you recommend using cellphone for interview in this case?

Thanks

Thanks Linda now I can feel more comfortable on zoom because you taught me what to do. 😊✨

Theres a feature in many video calls where you can artificially blur the background. Very handy if you dont have a good background available.

Thankyou

Thank you Linda, this is a first for me, I've never had a video interview and I have my first next week, so Im nervous and appreciate all your tips today. Ive done zoom group calls but not one on one, so thank you. I guess a video call can be better on a laptop than on a phone. Did you want a window behind me, and as background or the laptop? If you could that would help .

This is a side question, but, where did you get that painting in your background? Haha! It's stellar! :)

Good.

Thank you for this excellent video. However I was surprised you didn't cover the topic of "virtual backgrounds" in the backgrounds section. What do you think of them - assuming they are professional looking?
