Key takeaways
- Record yourself answering common fit questions, use a short answer-first structure, and test your camera, light and sound before the real interview.
- Reading from notes, running over the time limit, or giving long answers with no clear point.
- Record yourself on your phone answering two or three of your stories, then watch it back once for pace, eye contact and filler words.
By the end you will be able to
- Perform well speaking to a camera alone
- Structure recorded answers clearly
- Avoid the mistakes that make recorded answers fall flat
