Guest Guidelines for a Successful Interview

In preparation for your upcoming interview, we've created this simple checklist to ensure you have the best experience!
Prior to the Interview

• Drink enough water prior to the interview. It’s always a good idea to be hydrated.
• We recommend you use your earbuds or headphones for the interview, plugged into your computer's headphone jack. This will prevent any feedback making its way into the recording, and allow you to monitor your own voice as well.
• If you are using an external USB microphone, confirm the settings in UBER Conference show your USB microphone selected.
• Additionally, if you are using an external microphone, keep about an inch of distance between you and the microphone. It’s best to talk across the mic, to minimize any popping sounds from your voice (this tends to happen with words that begin with ‘P’).
• If at all possible, use a hard-line internet connection. If WiFi is the only option, ensure you’re as close to the WiFi signal as possible.
• If possible, close every program besides UBER Conference. This conserves valuable CPU processing power.
• During the call, please refrain from typing on your keyboard as this will be picked up by the microphone.
• Remember to use the mute button if you need to cough, clear your throat, or take a drink of water.
• It's always best to join the call a few minutes early as this allows time to test the audio.
• Most importantly, relax. It's going to be a great conversation!
