2. During the Interview Get yourself ready well before the interview, ensure all your technology is ready and working. And be on time for the interview! You may be asked to run through your application so ensure that you have your 'elevator pitch' ready to go. When sharing a presentation, try not to read from the slides: the purpose of the slides is to provide the highlights and your notes will provide additional insights.

On many video call applications, your own image might appear in a box in a different part of the screen so move that box as close to your camera as you can. Be prepared to deal with inter...

1. Before the Interview Treat the interview as if it were going to be a regular face-to-face interview. While you might not be physically in the same room as your interviewer(s), you will still be making a first impression, and that should be a positive one. Practice, Practice, Practice: We can’t emphasize this enough. An interview is a slightly artificial situation at the best of times.

But, can you drill down past the high-level descriptions of your previous work experiences when you’re in a high-pressure situation with people you don’t know - to articulate current and past roles or handpick situational examples that best represent your skillset? The honest answer is No! Not without practice. Now is a good chance to have a look at our Interview Preparation Toolkits to get you ahead, or research further online to find sampl...

Social blogging, sometimes called microblogging, is a subsection of regular blogging that uses posts with shorter word counts and more media.
