Interview

Walk in prepared, walk out confident

Eight tips that turn preparation into a strong first impression.

01

Build a STAR story bank

Write six to eight Situation–Task–Action–Result stories in advance. Most questions reuse them.

02

Keep answers to 60–90 seconds

Long, unstructured answers lose the room. Structure first, details second.

03

Research the company for 30 minutes

  • Website and product
  • Recent news
  • Competitors
  • Interviewer background

04

Prepare three questions

About success in the first 90 days, current challenges, and how the team gives feedback.

05

Use "I", not "we"

Interviewers want your contribution. Crediting the team is good; obscuring your role is not.

06

Practice out loud

Reading answers silently doesn't prepare you. Speak them, record them, refine them.

07

Send a short thank-you within 24 hours

Three sentences. Reference one specific moment from the conversation.
