How Does an Online Mock Interview Work? | InterviewFocus

Clear your desk of extra stuff and pick out a comfortable chair. Check your lights (do not use back lighting). Check your webcam and mic and make sure they are working properly. Make sure the webcam is placed in the right spot according to our interview setup. Close out any programs that might interfere with the webcam. Check your internet connections. Dress professionally.

Make sure you feel comfortable, relaxed and have correctly positioned yourself for our software to provide the best results in evaluating your soft skills!

InterviewFocus is in the cloud, so you don’t have to download or install any software.

The system works on a PC or MAC with a webcam and internet access.

Minimum requirements are: HD camera at  780px and microphone; minimum screen resolution is 1024 x 768; Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10. We suggest you invest in a high resolution webcam for the detection software to provide you the most accurate results!

Prior to the start of your video mock interview, we will automatically run a systems check to ensure that your webcam and mic are working properly, and we will double check that the video quality is sufficient. The InterviewFocus application will provide the right feedback to help you with your quality to assure a smooth interviewing experience.

We suggest you use  updated versions of  Google Chrome or Firefox Mozilla to work best with our high-tech system!

Please visit our Test Equipment under Interview section to check the reliability of your microphone and webcam before taking a mock interview or a coaching session. We will make sure to provide adequate feedback!

Yes, you can interrupt the current interview! However, the interview will restart at the question you were answering when you paused your mock interview, without the option of repeating the already answered questions!

Eye contact, body language and speech rate are our way to express confidence, interest and intent! Our software provides you with the impression that you create to your interviewer, by splitting it in six (6) scores and recommendations for: Eye Contact, Head Engagement Level, Speaking Rate, Filler Word Count, Smile Intensity and Time, and Tone of Voice.

Each of them is represented by a bar chart of categories where you can locate your flag after taking a mock interview. We hope you raise your flag to the Excellent category!
