Preparing for interviews
How to practice, what to research, and how to answer “tell me about yourself”.
Research the role
- Re-read the posting and list the three skills it emphasizes most.
- Look up what the team or company works on so you can ask a specific question.
Practice out loud
- Prepare a 60-second answer to “tell me about yourself”: where you study, what you’re into, why this role.
- Use the STAR structure for behavioral questions: situation, task, action, result.
- For technical roles, practice solving problems while explaining your thinking.
After the interview
- Send a short thank-you note within a day.
- Write down the questions you were asked — they’re great practice for next time.
