My dad is having his first job interview in more than 30 years and hooh boy is there so much knowledge about video calling technology and etiquette that I just took for granted 😳 Like, I can't explain why, but calling into an interview in portrait mode feels so casual / unprofessional... but his computer is so old that the only usable webcam he has is an iPad, and landscape mode on the iPad means it's hard to look into the camera on the side while talking 🙃 Wish him luck!

@janeadams Random idea: if he has access to a USB webcam and a USB-to-lightning adapter, he might well find that they Just Work together acceptably ...
