Any tips to do well on a panel interview (via Teams)? Never done one before so curious about the dynamics. There will be 3 interviewers - a C-level and 2 Directors. This is for a Director level position.

I do appreciate your responses D1, but unfortunately I’m just not finding them helpful. Thank you though.

Remember to look at the camera and try to move your eyes around a little. If you look at the screen you look like you are looking away. Try to make sure your camera is front and centre. Don’t have the camera pointed up your nose. Connect with a friend to make sure that the space around you is clean, angle is good, etc.

Clean up the area around you, using the automatic backgrounds isn’t always perfects and leaves artificats. Clean up your physical space and keep it clear. If your desk is clear, great. Also if you are using a wireless keyboard or mouse make sure that the batteries etc are charged. You don’t need a low battery alert to throw you off your game.

I don’t know your gender so tailor this advice accordingly, but dress in a full suit. Don’t just wear a good top and sweatpants. Had a humorous event where a member of leadership wore a suit top but then got up and was still wearing their PJs.

E1 this is helpful, thank you. During my initial interview with hiring manager, he was wearing a T-shirt and I was wearing shirt/slacks/jacket, so I’ll probably go with that instead of full suit. Although the PJs could be the lucky charm I need...

Have you done a panel interview as well? I’m curious what the dynamics are... e.g does each person just take turns asking questions or should I expect rapid fire follow up questions and constant probing and changing topics. I’m preparing for the latter but curious what others’ experiences were like.

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
