Remote interviews are now the norm, with 83% of Australian companies expected to employ over 60% remote workers by 2025. But they come with challenges that can derail hiring success. Here's how to avoid the most common mistakes:

• Bad Technical Setup: Test your internet, webcam, and microphone before the interview. Keep a backup device ready.

• Confusing Communication: Speak clearly, use structured answers (e.g., STAR method), and practise active listening.

• Time Zone Mix-ups: Confirm interview times in AEST, and use calendar tools to avoid confusion.

• Missing Communication Style Cues: Research the company's tone and mirror the interviewer's style.

The key to success? Preparation, professionalism, and clear communication. Whether you're a candidate or an employer, refining these skills ensures smoother remote interviews and better outcomes.
