🔎 Troubleshooting Common Issues

What might be wrongHow to fix it
Speaker sound feeding into microphoneSwitch to wired or wireless headphones immediately. If headphones are unavailable, lower your speaker volume.
Incorrect microphone or speaker selectedOpen system sound settings and select the correct microphone and speaker. Confirm the same selection inside the interview session.
Microphone sensitivity too highReduce microphone input volume in system settings. Keep the microphone close to your mouth and away from speakers.
Echo cancellation disabledEnable echo cancellation or noise suppression in your system or browser audio settings, if available.
Multiple devices capturing audioEnsure only one device is being used for audio. Mute, disconnect, or move away from other nearby devices.

Additional tips:

  • Sit in a smaller, enclosed room to reduce sound reflections.
  • Choose carpeted or furnished spaces instead of empty rooms.
  • Turn off fans, close windows, and minimize background noise sources.
