It's four or which industry in the comments section below the video, come on here each day and give you a few questions to prepare for.

Now, let me work through three really, really important Skype interview tips.

These are absolutely vital in your preparation, and then I will work through those Skype interview questions and answers with you.

So the first tip, the first Skype interview tip, is make sure you dress for the occasion.

Now the vast majority of Skype interviews are carried out, using both audio on visual, so you'll get to see the interview, therefore, because the interviewer will be able to see you or the top half of you.

At the very least, it's important to dresses.

If you were attending a formal face to face interview, so don't just think.

Oh, I'm going to carry out the Skype interview on my phone unless it's pre agreed that that's what you're gonna do.

Sat in your car on your phone and the phone is moving around in hand.

It just looks unprofessional.

So what, you can make sure you dress for the occasion and also treat the Skype interview as if it were the real thing's address formally for the interview, because it just first impressions are really important.

So when they see you on the Skype call, a connector of you and your sat there already formal looking dressed for the occasion, it shows that you're serious about your interviews to treat it like it's a real interview.

Next interview, Tip number two to Skype contributed to Consider the location for the Skype call carefully.

So unless they say to you or or pre agree to you, look, you know it doesn't matter where it's gonna be on where you are for the Skype call.

My advice is to think carefully about the location.

So before your Skype interview takes place, think about the location you will be in to take the call so a few tips make sure it is quiet, aesthetically appealing.

So what I mean by that is that if you are at home in your kitchen and behind you, or the pots and pans that need to be cleaned up.

It doesn't look good, Andi.

So just, you know, put your webcam on so you can see yourself and just have a look behind you, because that will also help to create a positive impression with the interviewer.

But also make sure you have a strong inter Internet connection.

So nowadays, like the Internet can fade out on the court quite a lot.

That's not good.

So you need to make sure that you, at the very least, have a strong Internet connection, especially if it's wireless.

So the point is, test your called.

So on Skype, you could do a test call for yourself.

So go online.

Five or 10 minutes before the Skype interview is gonna take place and just check everything is working correctly.

You should also ensure you will not be disturbed during a Skype call.

So this is really important because as to be interrupted during the call, it just looks on unprofessional and also make sure the volume settings are, you know, that make sure your volumes actually turn on.

The audio is turned on the volume settings are appalling again, you contest that before the real call number three.

So we're gonna move on to this and I'm gonna help you with this right now is make sure you prepare your answers in advance.

So you might say, Well, how do we know what the questions are?

Well, I will tell you pretty much what the questions will be during your Skype interview.

Call of the loads of research on this.

And these are the more common types of questions now, a couple of things on preparing your answers in advance, even though it's really important, in my view, to prepare your arms is but a Skype interview well in advance, where you don't want to do, which a lot of people do is they write down their answers and they read them from a sheet of paper.

Now you will be looking through your camera, your webcam so they can see you.

Now if it's a visual Skype interview, call which the majority of them are.

If you're looking down the side of your computer or your phone at a sheet of paper, they know that you're gonna be reading from, and that's not good.

So you need to be natural with your answers.

Okay, said, actually important.

So prepare your answers in advance, but think carefully about what you're going to say, and so will we.

See.

The interview will be able to tell your eyes and distracted away from the webcam when your answers will not flow or appear natural and they have to.

But you should still prepare your answers in advance and think about what you're gonna say in response to the Skype interview questions.

So let's work on these right now.

Let's start working through a number of Skype interview questions, so the 1st 1 will be for sure.

Okay, so thanks for attending to Skype into Start Off by telling me about yourself.

So this is an introductory Skype interview question pretty much guaranteed to be the 1st 1 So you want to get off on a positive foot?

My advice is to not talk about what you do outside of work unless they specifically asked you to in relation to your hobbies or interests.

But tell them what you are like a professionalism as a person at work, what do you like?

So here's my suggested answer to the first Skype interview Questions start off by telling me about yourself.

Okay, well, thank you for giving me the opportunity to be interviewed today.

I believe I am a model employee and someone who will definitely perform well within this role.

I believe this because I have looked at the qualities and the skills needed toe work within this position, and I feel they are a perfect match for my own attributes.

I am someone who always puts the needs of my employer on the team first above my own.

And I'm also someone who always looks to improve and develop within my work.

So to basically summarize, I believe I am a strong fit for the job description on DDE, the person specification.

Now that is a great answer because you demonstrate that you've looked at the job description, which most people don't, so that already puts you ahead.

But you read the juke, the person specification, and you believe you have the skills and qualities that are a match, and that's a great answer to that question.

Really difficult question.

Because let's face it, most people want to leave their job because there Eva Demotivated.

They don't like the team they're working for.

They may not like their manager or that supervisor on.

They just don't enjoy that work.

But obviously, if you rocked up your Skype interview and they are still issues, well, I don't like my manager, my secret files without a team I'm working with.

That's no a good reason to give because I would be thinking it might not be them.

It might be you who has the issue.

So we need to be very careful when you are answering this question.

So this is what I would say for this particular question.

That's a good question and it's one that I will answer honestly.

I have enjoyed working to my current employer and the truth is, if I had to stay there, I would be pretty pretty happy.

They've always treated me well and they are a great bunch of people.

However, I want a change of direction now and I want to work for a company that will put my skills and my experience to good use.

I feel I have so much to offer and I genuinely want to learn from diverse and talented people and I also want to work for a company who has exciting plans for the future, which you clearly do have great answer.

Very positive.

You're not being disrespectful off your employees.

Your current employer on that's important, in my view, on everything you say should be positive.

Everything you say.

And that's not a bad thing to want to move on because it shows you're committed.

We gotta be really careful with it now.

The first tip that I will give you an answer.

This question during the Skype interview call is to not give a weakness.

That is a match for any element of the job description.

So in the job description, if you have to work with other people is part of a team to complete tasks.

Don't say you know my weaknesses.

I don't really like working with people are preferred to work on my own.
