By OMA TeamPublished
Test your tech, set up a clean background, join early, and prepare as you would for an in-person interview.
Technical checklist: latest app version, wired or strong Wi-Fi, headphones, charged laptop, notifications turned off, backup phone hotspot, and the meeting link saved.
Environment: plain background, soft light facing you, camera at eye level.
Professional: dress fully (not only the top), keep your CV open, and keep a notebook handy.
During the call: don't interrupt, nod to show listening, and summarize key points at the end.
After: send a thank-you email within 24 hours.
