Avoid saying “we did” or “we worked”.... they wanted to hear “I”, “I did”, “I was”.... Most annoying interview I had ever taken as the interviewer didn’t care anything but kept asking me “did you do it or not, you said 'we’?"b

I had a similar experience. They are trying to make sure that YOU contributed significantly. I thought there was some irony in this interview style because it gives a disadvantage to candidates that are great team members.

Just be prepared to walk the interviewer through projects, problems you’ve solved, tough decisions you’ve made and why, etc. Very conversational

Understandable, thanks!

Yeah that’s makes a lot of sense, need to be more about what you accomplished and resolved and how you’ve handled the situation at hand

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

My boyfriend and I make 200K combined and live in NJ. We have $1000 in monthly car payments combined. That’s all we owe. Our credit scores are in the 800s. We have 50K to put down on a home. We have done the math and I know we can afford much more but he doesn’t want to buy more than a 400K home. I’m almost positive we can afford 500K and be more than ok. But then he starts to talk about how much kids cost and how we will be house poor and we won’t be able to afford kids. 🤔 Am I insane??
