Technical Requirements:

Camera Requirements

  • Sit at an arm's length - Ensure your head and torso are properly visible in the camera during the calibration.
  • No other participant - Make sure that only your face is in the camera focus, and no one else is around during the interview.
  • Illumination - Ensure that the room is properly lit for the interview.

Microphone Requirements

  • Earphones with mic (recommended) - Please consider using earphones for better speech recognition. Specifically, essential for noisy surroundings.
  • Minimize background noise - Try sitting in a quiet place. Even though minor background noise does not interfere with the feedback, it can decrease the accuracy of the speech recognition systems.
