Key Takeaways:

  • Nerves are natural and can enhance performance if properly managed—adrenaline can sharpen your focus.
  • Speaking anxiety often stems from past experiences; resolving these can reduce present-day fear.
  • Mental rehearsal of positive outcomes and emotional states is crucial to showing up grounded and confident.
  • Practical tips like vocal warmups, camera framing, and lighting help boost virtual interview presence.
  • Mistakes are humanizing—own them with composure and use them to reconnect with your audience.
  • Differentiating yourself comes from authentic self-expression, curiosity, and building rapport with interviewers.
