I do like the idea of first interviews coming from cyberspace. And if they gain ground now, it’s an important topic for students of today to consider.

I also hope different interview and recruitment techniques will attract those who might not have shown interest through more traditional methods.

If you haven’t already seen, I’ve answered your question about advice as a post. Thanks for the post idea!

I wonder what advice you would give someone facing a virtual interview? It seems to me that we need to rethink our careers advice in the light of the new wave of recruitment tools being used to attract candidates. I speak specifically about recruitment fairs in Second Life.
