Had anyone who applied for CRS in November received VI? Shall I consider this a PFO as I'm not familiar with how CRS processes this but can anyone who's familiar with it confirm whether CRS sends all the invites at one go for a particular area?

Hi @Andrei Radu, @Ram Sabaratnam and @Amma Usman

I have been invited to complete a video interview and want to make sure to be 'fully prepared'.

When answering a question about qualities or skills, do I need to link it back to my own experiences? I feel like time is of the essence, and if I need to mention multiple aspects, I feel that there is no time to discuss a time when I demonstrated x and y.

Moreover, do you think I can mention examples outside of my professional life?

@Jessica Booker, from a recruiter's point of view, what do you expect to see when assessing a video interview?
