On the minute in my opinion, like if it is scheduled for 9am, join 09:00, not 9:01 or 9:02. For me it signals that you care

Agreed, that feels like the right balance. Prepared, but not awkwardly early.

Usually a minute or two early just to make sure I can connect. Sometimes zoom takes a few moments to join a call.

So true. I joined a interview 2 mins early last week and my camera wasn’t working properly, but thankfully I had time to fix it. The interviewer joined right after I got it sorted, so those extra couple minutes definitely helped.
I usually join a couple minutes early. Joining too early feels a little awkward, especially with managers usually in other meetings before the interview time

A couple minutes early feels like the sweet spot to me too. Enough time to deal with any weird tech issue, but not so early that you’re just awkwardly waiting around.
