  • Be on time (5 minutes early online; 10–15 in person).

  • Mute notifications; close other apps; keep water, a pen and your resume nearby.
  • Sit upright, nod, smile naturally; avoid interrupting; pause before answering.
  • Speak clearly and at a moderate pace; if the connection drops, rejoin and briefly summarise where you were.
  • Dress one level above the company's daily dress code.
  • Close politely: thank them, ask about next steps, send a short thank-you email within 24 hours.
