STAR is the go to, but I think it's more about highlighting certain traits (innovation, collaboration, willingness to work together etc) that they're going to be looking for in the cultural fit rounds. If you do some LinkedIn stalking, you can get a sense of people's backgrounds and experience and that can help you figure out what experience you want to highlight

Definitely make sure you read what the recruiter sent you. they should have sent you a bunch of information about the company, expectations, etc. It's actually really helpful.

Congrats! Make sure you are very familiar with the company culture and be prepared to highlight aspect of company culture in your answers. I think it's a good habit to learn how to answer questions in STAR format as well, backed up by data/numbers.

E1, I really appreciate your kind words. I’ll update this thread once it’s all done, if it’s 💃🏻 or 😪

Reach out to current employees in your department on LinkedIn and get their feedback (plus early intro if you do get the job!).

What role are you interviewing for?

Biz Ops

You know the Pandemic life is getting “real” when your senior dog runs to you and cries. When you follow her you see her brother aka the cat is laying in the only sun patch. True story! I don’t have “non-furry” kids but I think I experienced a teeny part of it just now. This is them attempting to get along. 🤣🦊🐈

How do you approach collecting documents from a client in response to discovery requests? Particularly with broad and vague document requests that leave you guessing about what the other side is looking for, even after you meet and confer. I’m realizing no one ever taught me a systematic approach to this problem. And that big, name-brand companies are absolutely terrible about record-keeping or even knowing what records they have.

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected. I’d be worried that I would minimize lifestyle and fun for retirement at 50 but I’d die at 49. How about a way to work 9 months out of the year and retire/travel/relax for 3 months? This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled

What are your thoughts about having to take an iq/personality assessment tests? It seems so outdated to me. I don’t think it predicts how you will truly perform at a job.

I present, interview clients, demo products, and facilitate meetings for a living. So what if I go home and shut down after work? I’m exhausted from speaking all day!
