1 Choose the right platform

The first step is to choose a reliable and user-friendly platform for your virtual interview. Depending on the type and purpose of the interview, you may need different features, such as video, audio, chat, screen sharing, whiteboard, or file sharing. You should also consider the compatibility, security, and accessibility of the platform. Make sure you test the platform beforehand and familiarize yourself with its functions and settings. You may also want to have a backup plan in case of technical issues or interruptions.

Pour rendre les entretiens virtuels plus efficaces et agréables, il est essentiel de choisir la bonne plateforme. Des options populaires comme Zoom, Microsoft Teams et Google Meet offrent des fonctionnalités avancées telles que le partage d'écran, la possibilité de rejoindre via un lien et la qualité de la vidéo en HD. Ensuite, il est important d'établir des règles de base pour l'entretien virtuel. Les gestionnaires peuvent également se préparer à l'avance en testant la plateforme et en s'assurant d'avoir une connexion Internet stable. L’utilisation d’avatars et de l’immersion en metavers (via Teams par ex) peuvent rendre également ludiques ces entretiens.

2 Prepare your space and equipment

The second step is to prepare your physical space and equipment for the virtual interview. You should choose a quiet, well-lit, and tidy location that minimizes distractions and background noise. You should also adjust your camera angle, lighting, and sound to ensure a clear and professional appearance. You may want to use a headset or earphones to improve the audio quality and avoid feedback. You should also have a stable internet connection, a fully charged device, and any necessary documents or materials ready.

Testing your equipment is key- you want to ensure your internet connection is strong, test your audio/ visual to ensure no issues, and ensure you're in a quiet area that will be free from distraction so you're able to focus solely on the interview. If you do experience a technical issue- don't panic, these things happen! Most interviewers in my experience understand these things are out of your control in most cases.

Before your virtual interview check your surroundings and make the setting/background look as professional as possible Interviewers do not want to see your overflowing laundry basket or your left-over lunch on the table. It is best to have a window or light source behind your computer or phone for the video call. If the lighting is behind you, it is difficult to see you. Be sure that you have a strong internet connection and that you have tested your program/device beforehand.

3 Dress appropriately and confidently

The third step is to dress appropriately and confidently for the virtual interview. Even though you are not meeting in person, you should still follow the dress code and expectations of the industry and the organization you are interviewing with. You should also avoid wearing anything that is too flashy, casual, or distracting, such as bright colors, patterns, or accessories. You should dress in a way that makes you feel comfortable and confident, and that reflects your personality and professionalism.

If the company has a specific dress code, I'd advise you follow it for a virtual interview as well (this could also show you've prepared for the interview). Ensure that you're able to sit comfortably throughout the interview and won't need to fidget/ re-adjust throughout as this can be distracting to the interviewers.

4 Communicate effectively and respectfully

The fourth step is to communicate effectively and respectfully during the virtual interview. You should pay attention to your verbal and non-verbal cues, such as your tone, volume, pace, eye contact, posture, and gestures. You should also listen actively and attentively to the interviewer, and respond clearly and concisely to their questions. You should avoid interrupting, talking over, or dominating the conversation, and instead use open-ended questions, feedback, and acknowledgments to build rapport and engagement.

This may seem obvious, but it is essential to be focused solely on the interview. The fact that the other party can't see your desk or computer is not an excuse to be working on other things during the interview.

Treat your virtual interview as though you are in-person. Posture, eye contact with the camera, and concise answers are all things I notice during a virtual interview. It can be difficult in an interview if there's a delay in the internet and you end up speaking at the same time as someone else- I always wait a moment after someone finishes before speaking to ensure I'm not interrupting.

5 Show your enthusiasm and interest

The fifth step is to show your enthusiasm and interest in the virtual interview. You should demonstrate your knowledge and passion for the role, the organization, and the industry, and highlight your relevant skills and achievements. You should also express your curiosity and eagerness to learn more about the opportunity, the expectations, and the culture. You should also ask thoughtful and insightful questions that show your research and preparation, and that help you evaluate the fit and potential of the position.

When conducting an interview virtually, it's important you're able to show your energy through the screen which isn't always an easy task. I always encourage candidates to come with questions that can showcase your preparation and eagerness to better understand the role, team, or organization. If you've done your research, this is a great opportunity to gain clarity around anything ambiguous.

6 Follow up and thank

The sixth step is to follow up and thank the interviewer after the virtual interview. You should send a polite and personalized email or message within 24 hours of the interview, expressing your appreciation and interest, and reiterating your main strengths and value proposition. You should also mention any specific points or topics that you discussed or enjoyed during the interview, and ask for any feedback or next steps. You should also keep in touch and update the interviewer on your status and availability until you hear back from them.
