I have a final interview where I’m to meet the team I’d be leading (managers within the finance team) along with the CFO (who I have interviewed with previously). It’s virtual, they gave me a prompt to answer so I’ll prepare that; but, any suggestions on how to work a virtual, blended room?

It’s like a virtual meeting for work. It’ll be dominated really by 1-2 people and the rest may chime in here and there. This is how it’s been in my experience anyway. Beyond that take time to think of an answer before replying to anything. Thinking before you speak isn’t common shockingly and definitely something people will pick up on. If you think of it as an interview 1-2 people that happens to be in front of a group of people you’ll be fine. Good luck
