Pro-tip for anyone else who sucks at interviews: Apply to and interview for jobs you don't really want. I've actually done this a couple of times, and I've found it's definitely helped.

Yup. Great interview practice. I’ve done this a lot and try out new material to see how it goes over with interviewers at no-risk to me. Practice makes better

You are wasting the hiring manager’s time.

Doesn’t matter. You benefit much more from the experience than the unknown hiring manager loses in the process. 1 hour of their life gone? I don’t lose one minute of sleep for the poor hiring managers of this world

Just play “It’s the eye of the tiger king of the fight” over and over again in your head during the interview. Works every time!!

I’m interviewing with a startup and the range has a 40k difference from the lowest to highest point. It’s also pre-seed and comes with equity, and health, 401k benefits. It’s a director of sales role so I would eventually be recruiting and managing a team along with building the processes and strategy. What would you consider a fair compensation package? If they offer me something on the lower end of the range, is it still appropriate to counter with an offer that is over their stated range?

I am wanting to go into consulting. How can I use my experience in industry as an advantage to get into consulting? I had a few interviews with a firm, but I mentioned that I provided some efficiency solutions in my career, got a six sigma black belt, and analyze data to provide solutions on a daily basis in my current role.
After my 3rd chat with the firm, I have not heard back.
Any tips on what I can do to be considered in consulting? I've been in 3 different industries over the past 9 years.

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!
