The coronavirus pandemic has shown us that anyone can work from anywhere, which means more job competition, especially for those just entering the workforce.

• To stand out in a virtual interview, focus on what you say, where you say it, and how you say it.
• Persuade the recruiter to invest in you by connecting your passions to the company’s values.
• Use your background to show the recruiter who you are as a person. (For example, stack books you’ve read on your shelves.)
• Make sure you talk slowly and use inflections to emphasize your main points. Your voice matters more in video than it does in-person.
