Check the environment you will actually use

Open the same meeting app, browser, editor, and display arrangement you plan to use during the interview. Confirm that MOG can hear the call and that its status changes when you pause and resume listening.

If you will share an application window, practice sharing that exact window. If you will share an entire display, verify what appears there before the real call begins.

Bring context that helps without narrowing your thinking

Your role description, portfolio notes, and a short list of projects can help MOG understand the language likely to appear in the interview. Keep that context factual and current.
