Your hiring manager can be your best friends or worst enemy. Do your best to set a good impression by researching them a little bit and definately do a deep dive on the job posting. Having some commonality with the hiring manager can be a great starting point.

Be prepared to talk on each bullet point, even if it is not an area of strength. Have at least three questions prepared, but do not stress if you do not get to ask any of them. Generally, I like to ask about culture within that specific group because it is something that can be easily searched online and shows you are thinking about how you fit with the team.. Overall, enjoy the interview and good luck!

1. Offer is in an industry w/ a better fit based on my interests/background
2. I initially interviewed for a more senior with my current boss but he lowballed me at the time and gave me a junior role; what has …
