Hey there, Zoom hosts! You know how important it is to keep your audience engaged during live sessions, right? When folks get involved, they’re more likely to absorb all those juicy tips you’re sharing about crafting the perfect resume or nailing that next big interview. Attention and interaction not only make the session lively but also make sure that what you're telling them sticks!
Kick Off with Magic Maps for an Engaging Start
So your attendees have just joined your Resume and Interview Skills Workshop on Zoom. Why not fire up the session with Magic Maps? Ask everyone where they’re Zooming in from or what city they'd love to work in. For example, you could say, 'Where are you joining us from?' or 'Name a city where your dream job is located.' Then just sit back and watch as StreamAlive populates a lively map, making everyone feel more connected. This visual activity not only breaks the ice, but also taps into their aspirations, making them more invested in what they’re about to learn.
Deep Dive with Open-Ended Opinion Polls
For getting into the nitty-gritty, open-ended opinion polls are the way to go. Use these to ask deeper questions like, 'What’s the best piece of career advice you've ever received?' or 'Share a memorable interview experience.' As your audience types their stories, StreamAlive captures these into a live poll, allowing everyone to see diverse perspectives. This not only makes for richer discussions but can spark inspiration for everyone in the session.
Boost Engagement with Power Polls
Power Polls are a fantastic way to get real-time, dynamic feedback from your attendees. Ask them easy, engaging questions like 'How confident are you with your current resume?' or 'What's the toughest interview question you've faced?' These polls get your audience to think actively about the topics at hand, encouraging them to share personal insights while seeing what others think, too. And it’s also a clever way to gauge what areas need more focus during your session.
Make Your Session Fun with the Winner Wheel
Who doesn't love a bit of suspense? During your session, use the Winner Wheel to jazz things up and reward participation. Maybe you've just covered a module on 'Top 5 Resume Boosting Tips.' Get your audience to share their own tips in the chat and then spin the wheel to choose a random winner. Another idea would be to use it after a tricky interview question round, rewarding someone who's bravely shared their take. This not only encourages participation but also gives a fun break from the learning.
Capture Thoughts Instantly with Wonder Words
Wonder Words, or word clouds, are perfect for summing up everyone’s feelings and insights in a snap. Kick off your session by asking what one word describes their current feeling about job hunting or maybe late into the session, as them for one word about how they feel about interviews now compared to the start. As they type, their words pop up in a dynamic word cloud on the screen. It’s a vivid, instant way to reflect your group’s thoughts and helps them see they're not alone in their journey.
Let the Choice Circle Decide for You
