If loud background noise is heard while someone is speaking in an online meeting, what is the correct behavior?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Mute the microphone or choose a quiet place
Background noise can cover the speaker’s words and make the meeting difficult for everyone. The participant causing the noise should mute the microphone while not speaking or move to a quieter place, then unmute only when ready to contribute. Increasing noise disrupts communication, sharing passwords is unsafe, and leaving an account open is poor security practice.
