Narrative:
On vectors to ZZZ ILS xxr we overshot our intercept to final; but made an immediate correction to track inbound on the localizer. PF and pm were monitoring the multiple vectors; altitudes; speeds and configuration and when cleared for the approach PF did not push and confirm approach mode on mode control panel. As we saw that we were not intercepting the localizer PF corrected the heading and used approach mode to capture the localizer.as we all work through covid proficiency issues it's important to be vigilant at all phases of flight for errors and trap them as soon as possible.
