Application bites: telephone and video interviews - a podcast by Frances Ridout, Kerry Jarred, Simon Reichwald, Nigel Spencer

We might think that telephone interviews are now a thing of the past, but they are still commonly used as part of the application process so employers can test how you communicate (pace, tone of voice, succinctness etc.)

Kerry and Simon explore how video interviews can be live (with another person at the other end like a face to face interview) or pre-recorded.  They discuss how pre-recorded video interviews work (ie when you now answering questions to a live person), why are they used and what are the tips to make sure that your video stands out? Not forgetting a bucket load of tips on logistics like backgrounds, cameras, connectivity, and appropriate dress!
