Now that you've checked out the companies above and viewed all the remote jobs they're hiring for, do you think you'd want to apply for some? If so, here's how to ace a virtual interview.

1. Research the company beforehand.

It's a bad idea to show up for a virtual interview without first familiarizing yourself with the company—what they do, what their mission is, and the people who'll be interviewing you. Of course, you probably already conducted some research on the company when you wrote your disruptive cover letter, but you'll want to spend more time getting to know the employer so your answers to interview questions have context.

2. Write down questions to ask the interviewer.

Always, always, always ask the interviewer at least one question during an interview. We recommend asking three to five, but make sure the questions you ask are helping you get a better feel for the company and help you answer the ultimate question: "Would I really want to work here?" Before your virtual interview, write down the questions you want to ask the hiring manager. This will not only help you remember the questions once the interview starts, but it'll also give you an opportunity to work through your thought process one last time.

3. Practice, practice, practice!

Treat your virtual interview like an in-person interview. Dress the part. Get familiar with the technology you will be using. Most of all, though, practice! The best way to practice for any interview is with a mock interview. Ask a trusted friend or colleague to conduct one with you, and then ask them for feedback. You'll get some helpful pointers and also feel so much more prepared for the actual thing.
