Camera on during interview.
How to ask the interviewer to turn on his camera when they ask the interviewee the same. Is this rude to ask this.?

Why do you want to see the interviewer
If he wants to see you even if you are uncomfy, you can see him too. If he declines, you get a fairly good picture of what the culture is going to be over there- looking down on employees.
If an interviewer pulled this stunt with me, I’d pull the ejection seat right after I give him a piece of my mind.
Interviews happen with cameras being off, discussions happen with cameras being on
During my Uber interview, I felt that my interviewer wasn’t interested in taking the interview.
When you turn on camera you make an impression that you’re as invested as the candidate, helps in building a rapport.
Correct
I had the same feel with an interviewer while on camera. Cvent lol.
Saw this on Reddit and resonated with me - “I had this. I was asked to put my camera on but before I did I asked if they would be doing the same, I was told no, so I told them I wasnt interested in working for the company, wished them luck and left closed the teams meeting. They emailed me 10 minutes later and said they could put the camera on. I told them too little too late, I'm too qualified to have to demand to be treated like a human and want nothing to do with a company that acts in this way.”
Even if this story was false these words are helpful for others 😅
IMO, it says about the culture alot. Interviewers focusing more on discussions rather than interrogation and with a smile is a welcoming gesture.
Not rude to ask at all. This should be equal
