9. VIDEO CONFERENCING
Video conferencing is live, visual connection between two or more
remote parties over the internet that stimulates a face to face meeting.
Video conferencing is important because it joins people who would not
normally be able to form a face to face connection.

10. PARTICIPATION IN MEETINGS
• Stay focused on the topic under discussion. Make sure that the
meeting starts and finishes on time so participants feel that their time
is valued and that they can plan for effective meeting participation to
fit in with their work load. It is important that every person feels their
attendance and contribution is valued.

11. CHAIRING SESSIONS
Chairing a session at a conference involves more than reading
biographical sketches outloud or interrupting speakers when their time
is up. An effective chairperson creates a sense of coherence throughout
the (sometimes diverse) presentations.

12. FORMAL INTERVIEW AND INFORMAL INTERVIEW
A formal interview is the most common form of the interview. It is a
traditional form of inyerview wherein an employer and a candidate
converse in a professional environment.
On the other hand, an informal interview usually takes place in a casual
atmosphere. In an informal interview, the employer might have a chat
with the potential candidate over coffee.

13. AMBIENCE
The ambience in which the interview takes place can have a great deal
of influence on the results. A setting with the minimum distractions is
generally the best. Frequent interruptions mar the flow of
conservation and prevent both the interviewer and the respondent
from being alert to each others verbal and non verbal cues.

14. POLEMICS
• Polemics in an interview refer to the practice or skill of arguing
strongly for or against. However during the interview it is important
that one takes care one’s mannerisms and behaviour patterns. The
conduct of some candidates is not positive during an interview. The
interviewee must behave formally and try to impress the interviewers
with good manners and positive behaviour pattern.

15. PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
A performance appraisal is a regular review of an employee’s job
performance and contribution to a company. Performance appraisals
are also called annual reviews, performance reviews or employee
appraisals.
