We’re excited for you to meet Zara our AI recruiter. A little preparation on your part can help the process go smoothly. Treating the interaction like a regular interview ensures a productive and engaging experience. By setting up your space, communicating clearly, and being ready to share your thoughts, you’ll make it easier for Zara to do her job and guide the conversation effectively.

Below we’ve provided some best practices to set you up for success:

Before the Interview

Check Your Tech:

  • Ensure you have a desktop computer ready. At this time, you are not able to interview on a mobile device.

  • Test your camera and microphone for clarity.

  • Ensure a stable internet connection to prevent interruptions.

Set Up your Environment:

  • Ensure a quiet and distraction-free space.

  • Choose a neutral or clean background to maintain focus.

Optimize Lighting:

  • Use natural light or soft, even lighting to illuminate your face.

  • Avoid harsh shadows or backlighting that could obscure your expressions.


During the Interview

Keep Your Camera On:

  • Maintaining eye contact with the camera adds a personal touch and encourages engagement.

  • Remember that your facial expressions can enhance the interaction, even with Zara.

Speak Clearly and Articulate:

  • Use a steady pace, avoid mumbling, and enunciate your words to improve understanding.

  • Take short pauses to allow Zara to process your input.

Eliminate Background Noise: Use headphones or a noise-canceling microphone if needed.
