Anyone ever had a Skype interview? Any tips?
I'm doing one for a Japanese company this afternoon. I've always rocked traditional in person interviews, but never done Skype. Never even used Skype before, actually. I've bought a decent quality webcam and headset, know what I'm going to wear, and set up my background to be clean and to also include a few items that express who I am. I'm more excited than nervous about the whole thing, but still feel a touch of anxiety over doing something new. Talking to a computer just seems strange. I welcome any insight.
