Just a plain white virtual background

funny

I would lean towards no just because there’s often some visual tears that make it look a little off. If you can’t find a nice clean background, then it’s ok

Thanks

I’ve seen interviewers with a virtual background.

Good luck. As long as it’s not disturbing i think you should be fine.

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam.

But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
