When conveying that going above and beyond is your status quo, it should come across as second nature. You want to come across as though you are in your comfort zone. Speak sincerely and be confident, relaxed and at ease. Keep it natural, speaking with friendly confidence while maintaining eye contact with the camera. Be mindful of your posture and smile with both your mouth and your eyes. Keep your body language open, your tone steady, even, and consistent with your statements. Practice beforehand until you are comfortable with this style of interview, and come across as if you are speaking to a real person or to an audience.

HireVue's assessment models rely on its ability to evaluate your facial expressions, and it repeatedly suggests to "Check your lighting. Make sure it's in front of you. Lighting from behind makes it hard to see you." The algorithm's design is to see your face. Therefore, it might eliminate you as a candidate if you're backlit and it's unable to read your expressions. So aim for good natural lighting, cast evenly across your face.

"I'm always thinking outside of the box, trying to identify ways in which I am able to work smarter rather than harder. I believe it's always highly likely that there is a better way to perform any task in most situations. For example, whenever we were processing mass orders with varying quantities for each line item, there were consistently a percentage of mis-punches occurring. Tracking down the mis-punches and coaching the individuals held accountable for them simply resulted in too much re-work and hurt morale. So, I developed a tally system, where for each visual page of each order, there was a running subtotal. This way, when the system's tally didn't coincide with the page's tally, then the clerk knew they had to track their own mis-punch before the order was finalized and submitted. So, proactively they identify their own growth opportunities in the most prompt, frequent, and specific method available. Our leadership was thrilled."
