Using Skype can seem self-explanatory, but if you’re not familiar with video chat or need a refresher on best practices, here’s a great run down to keep in mind.
Don’t chew gum
Call in early
Wear headphones if you have them
Dress appropriately
Have all your documents and notes in front of you
Put your dog in the other room
Minimize distractions around you (no TV, find childcare)
Don’t skype when you’re driving
If you’re creating your account, make sure your user name is professional
Be a human! : )
