       | Spot on. I know how tough it can be when you're an interviewer
       | dealing with somebody who has a bad connection - it takes so much
       | mental energy to just understand what they're saying that it's
       | tough to process whether you want to hire them. As a result, when
       | I'm a candidate, I always make sure the audio and video are
       | working well when I start. I have a Jabra conference room
       | speakerphone that I use, and on the off chance that's not
       | working, I have a headset I can grab. As a backup to my backup,
       | I've got another laptop nearby.
       | 
       | If a candidate is told they have a bad connection and given the
       | opportunity to fix it but refuses, it's at the very least poor
       | judgement about the importance of communicating clearly at work.
       | I don't want to work in a remote environment with someone who
       | doesn't think it's a problem to be staticky/jittery/etc. in
       | meetings.
