Remember to describe your experience leading meetings in a remote setting in addition to the amount of time you have worked remotely. Interviewers value candidates that have experience facilitating team meetings and expertise using online collaboration tools.
"I have worked remotely for the last five years. I am comfortable working in this type of environment, and I have a dedicated space in my home to work. Additionally, I have several functional locations I go to regularly when I need a change of scenery. I also lean on a consistent schedule to help me maintain balance and focus.
I have experience with several major collaboration tools. I am comfortable leading online meetings, sharing my screen, and using facilitation tools such as virtual whiteboards.
I enjoy environments where teams work to get to know each other well despite working remotely. I believe taking time out to connect and share in a social setting from time to time helps to foster higher team performance and satisfaction."
