Why is asking you to turn on your video a red flag for you?
An applicant not wanting to turn on their video is a HUGE red flag, especially these days with all the scams going around.
- carlosjobim 3y agoI just don't understand the insisting on video interviews and video calls. I would never want to do a video call with a prospective employee. A normal phone call has always been more than enough for me to get a feel for a person when I'm hiring. And if a recruiter can't get to know somebody by phone, then they're simply incompetent at their job of interviewing and hiring, which most of them frankly are. If the job is super important, then the recruiter should manage to arrange a face-to-face interview with the candidate. To me video calls are a huge sign of immaturity.
- mech422 3y agoI don't have video on my 'non-work' machines, and I usually get a 'work' laptop from the company... a webcam is not exactly gonna break the bank, but I hate polluting my home machines with crap. So I guess its not really a red flag to me, more of a nuisance
- lkdfjlkdfjlg 3y agoOk just so you know you're coming across really difficult. Like you'll find objections about anything. I think that if I'm considering any kind of business arrangement with someone, asking to see their face is a extremely minimal ask.
