New to Microsoft Teams
Hi there -
There's lots of great information to get started with Teams out there. I would recommend starting here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/get-started-with-teams-quick-start
There are some really great videos to check out here in the training section - many of which are short and easy to consume if you don't want to sit down for a whole hour 🙂 https://support.office.com/en-us/article/microsoft-teams-video-training-4f108e54-240b-4351-8084-b1089f0d21d7?wt.mc_id=otc_home&ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
Here's information on scheduling meetings: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Schedule-a-meeting-in-Teams-943507a9-8583-4c58-b5d2-8ec8265e04e5
Here's information on how the person will join the meeting - for most of the people, they will likely hit join meeting & join using the web client if they are not already users of Teams: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/join-a-meeting-in-teams-1613bb53-f3fa-431e-85a9-d6a91e3468c9
In a nutshell - yes, you need to get a Microsoft Teams account. If your organization doesn't already have licenses with their O365 subscription, you can get a Teams Free account and that will be simple for you to set up video calls to have with another person. They do not have to have an account; they can join using the web client which requires no download. That said, if they do have Teams, they can join from their desktop client and another option is to join from their Teams client on a cell phone.
An easy way to share the interview questions is to put them in a slide deck and display the slide one by one as you go through them. I use this method when doing an interview style presentation. I hope that helps you! Good luck.
