💡 Interview Tips I’ve Learned

🎤 Behavioral Interviews

  • STAR method is your best friend (Situation, Task, Action, Result)
  • Prepare 5-6 stories that showcase different skills
  • Practice out loud - it sounds different than thinking in your head

💻 Technical Interviews

  • Think out loud - even if you’re stuck, explain your thought process
  • Ask clarifying questions - shows you think about edge cases
  • Start simple - get a working solution first, then optimize

🏢 Company Research

  • Know their recent news - product launches, funding, acquisitions
  • Understand their tech stack - shows genuine interest
  • Prepare thoughtful questions - treat it as a two-way conversation
