I found an article that highlights how important it is to prepare for a video interview. It’s referring to a video conference, but still…the prep work is what you need to take away from this. The candidate videotaped himself answering typical interview questions and then reviewed it to catch all the “ums” and other nervous habits that show unfavorably on camera. He fixed those issues, sailed through the interview with “quick, concise answers that wowed the hiring manager”, and got the job.

Video interviews are more stressful than normal interviews. Even if you’re outgoing with fabulous people skills and have lots of experience answering interview questions, you’d be suprised at how many nervous habits you have on camera. You can minimize those by doing a few run-throughs, having your notes in front of you, and implementing the tips available on the Interview On Demand website. It will increase your confidence, improve your delivery, and increase your chances of getting the job you want.
