In a panel interview, you will be meeting with multiple people at once.
Your position may significantly impact other’s jobs at the organization you are applying to, so they want to learn more about you to ensure you’ll be a good fit.
When they introduce themselves or are introduced to you, learn and maybe write down the names and positions of everyone on the panel so you’ll know how to adapt and tune your responses to them.
Executives should get more business-centric answers and Engineers more technical ones.
When conducting a video interview, be aware of your environment and make sure that everything in view of the camera is clean.
If you DON’T have the best background, the video conferencing apps have filters that can change the background to something more in line with what you are looking to show.
