Of all things, lack of trust and transparency from a video platform is pretty scary. Hard to justify using Zoom any longer. Lifesize is a good alternative that a lot of people don't know about (I have no stake in them, but have used it

Totally agree with you about scripts. Can't speak to exactly what Justin meant, but memorization projects confidence AND makes sure that nerves don't get the best of you! In situations outside of interviews like this, I've st

>It seems to me that memorizing them will make you seem robotic and un-engaging. It's all in the delivery though, right? You can make a passionate case for your current traction by stating metrics with conviction. You can also recit
