Before your scheduled interview, you will receive a confirmation email including the scheduled interview time and the Zoom link each team will use to join the interview. In order to respect the time of our volunteer judges, team members must join the Zoom 10 minutes before their scheduled time. One team coach or mentor must also be on Zoom during the entire interview, but cannot talk while the interview is being conducted. When teams join Zoom, they will be moved to a breakout room where the judges are present once the team and coach/mentor is present. If teams are late, this may result in a shortened interview or a cancellation. Interviews can not be rescheduled if missed, so please ensure that team members are aware of the expectations and scheduled times. Team members and coaches can join separately from home, but some teams may prefer to join on one computer from the same location.
If you have any questions, let us know!
