Test your internet connection, camera and microphone at least a day before the interview, and choose a quiet, well-lit place where you will not be interrupted.
Keep your passport, CV and certificates within reach. Employers often ask you to confirm details or show a document on camera.
Expect practical questions about your experience: what machinery you have used, how long you worked in a role, whether you can work shifts, and when you would be available to start.
Answer honestly. Overstating experience is the single most common reason candidates are rejected later in the process.
