Skype Username: required.

I have downloaded Skype and got a user name and then added it to the application and now I will delete Skype till they get back to me or maybe not.

Then spend another five minutes setting up a Skype account.

You really don't help yourself!

Edit: That didn't take long did it!

I have no idea how Skype is going to help anyone if you can just use the phone but still.

If they ask for it, they'll probably use it.

So if you deleted it, and are called to an interview using it (perhaps by using IM), you'll be shooting yourself in the foot.

then I will just have to re install it. IM for an interview is an odd one when they are 30 mins up the road.

They're 30 mins up the road from you but other people the want to interview could be much further away. My organisation often uses phone, Skype and video-links to do interviews, especially first interviews and especially when the person is a long way away or abroad.

Skype supports video as well as sound.... can be much easier to set up a skype video conference than try and find a date when everyone is in the office at the same time and there is a free meeting room etc (meeting rooms are rarer than hens teeth in most organisations)

Well I am screwed then as I have no webcam.

I've had a skype interview before (UK firm, but guy in New york wanted to interview me).

I've known video skype interviews before (but firms won't insist on it)

I am guessing they will as you had to have skype to apply.
