SUMMARY:Mastering the Video Interview
DESCRIPTION:Video interviews have been around for a while\, but they’ve grown in popularity and will probably still be used for years to come. This is why it’s important to put your best foot forward and get to the next phase of in-person interviews. This webinar will go over the logistics of video interviews\, how to prepare for them\, questions to expect\, and questions you can ask.  \nFor some job candidates\, they can be tricky to master. Unlike the in-person interview\, you’re not in the room with the interviewers where you can feel the energy. There are similarities\, though. For example\, you can see their facial expressions\, body language\, and hear their questions.  But have you thought about how you present yourself? What about lighting\, sound\, and your background? Even how you dress and making proper eye contact matters. These and other tips will be covered in this webinar. \nFor accessibility options\, please contact Ellen at 978-805-4807 or ellen.waszak@masshirelowellcc.com.  \nPlease enter your Job Seeker ID (Mass JobQuest) when registering.
