Is this a real question? Work from home that day or reserve a conference room on another floor - and preferably a room that isn’t surrounded by glass walls.

We don’t say go anymore.

See if there's a wework or Regus or something nearby. You can reserve a room for the hour. I did that once for a video interview

Yeah I just work from home. See if the public library has study rooms you can reserve. My old agency, none of the conference rooms were soundproof so I couldn’t do that.

One place I video interviewed specifically told me they wouldn’t care if I just used my phone and went outside to a local park or something, but I personally didn’t want to do that

Book a room. If anyone asks, say you have to call a partner agency you work with to align on something. Bonus is if you actually do call them briefly before your interview in case anyone asks where you are. My last AD was a nightmare so I made sure to always have the receipts to back up my story.

Moving into the second round of interviews for an industry job, and they want to book a whole day so I can have a call with each of the ~10 team members. Taking a day off is a stretch for me, because I’m on a short project, so I want to make sure that I have the information I need to decide to proceed—what info would you expect to have about a role by this stage? Too early to ask about salary/benefits? Other wisdom? 🙏🏼
