Dos Before Your Talview Interview
1. Run a System Check Before Your Interview
- Run Talview’s system check a day or two before the interview. Confirm your internet speed (at least 2 Mbps), webcam, microphone, and speakers are working.
- Join the interview room 5–10 minutes early to test your device and browser.
- Use an updated browser (Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge).
- Disable VPNs and ad blockers.
- Have an alternate device, charger, or internet option (like a mobile hotspot) available in case of technical issues.
2. Choose a Quiet, Professional Space
- Sit in a quiet, well-lit area with a clean background and minimal distractions.
- Avoid backlighting or harsh shadows that obscure your face.
3. Dress Appropriately
- Wear professional attire, just as you would for an in-person interview. Business casual or formal attire is recommended depending on the role.
4. Keep ID Ready
- Have your valid ID for identity verification.
5. Follow Talview’s On-Screen Instructions
- Be prepared for a 360-degree environment scan or secondary camera using your mobile device, if prompted.
- Stay on camera and avoid switching tabs or multitasking during the session.
6. Maintain Positive Body Language
- Look directly at the webcam, sit upright, and use natural gestures.
- Smile and engage actively to help interviewers connect with you.
