I’ve been getting fully dressed up: blazer with dress (if it’s sleeveless) or with jeans or just a dress. Call me crazy but I actually put jeans and heels on. It personally helps me feel more confident & that I’m having a real interview vs. just zooming in my parents house.

Silk button-up, earrings and gym shorts

VP1: Out of curiosity, are you male or female?

Black t shirt. Always have, always will.

Open road hat, too?

“To” is interesting there, are you gonna meet someone in, like, a place?

If its just a webcam thing, it would be fun to get super dressed up, or wear a Halloween costume, or do a Hawaiian theme, and tell them you wanted to stand out. Or say this is what you wear on every zoom call. I dunno, have some fun.

It has surprised me how few items I own that look normal on webcam...like not slouchy, overly distracting, not too warm, or too revealing...
I’ve had like 3 rounds of interviews and I’m like fuck I’m running out of my crew necked uniform!

It’s usually business casual 😡😡😡.

Interviewed via zoom a couple weeks ago, I put on a simple, classic button down for one round (I love button downs) and simple T for others. Wear whatever feels natural and easy, but also considerate of the kind of org you're interviewing for (if it's more formal)

I always make an effort (with a nice top and basic hair and makeup) for my zoom interviews. 💁🏻‍♀️But the people who’ve interviewed me always look like they just rolled out of bed. No exaggeration. Regardless of their sex, age or position in the company. I always think, wow must be nice to have a job and not care.

Hi All... URGENTLY NEED some suggestions.

I've got a job offer in australia for 120$ Aud. Pay is good but they reached out to me via LinkedIn now all interviews done. If i accept the offer they will start my visa process. But I couldn't find the company in Google or Glassdoor reviews. It's a new startup kind of consultancy with 10-15 PPL. I can only see few linkedin posts for that company.

Is it advisable to proceed? They're not asking any money from me they are sponsoring for visa. Is it safe
