Hi Freedom Seekers,
You aced the phone screening. Your resume was perfect. You're clearly qualified for the role.
Then came the video interview.
Suddenly, you're competing against your bedroom wall, a barking dog, and unstable wifi.
The hiring manager can barely hear you, your camera keeps freezing, and you look like you're sitting in a cave.

This tells us that remote interviews aren't just about your qualifications anymore. They're about demonstrating you can maintain professional standards without office infrastructure.
