"Lessons from an Interview: The Power of Feedback few months back I had an interview experience that left a lasting impression on me. After clearing two rounds, I sensed that the client round didn't go as well. Instead of waiting for the usual "we'll get back to you" response, I took a chance and asked the interviewer directly where I fell short. To my surprise, she appreciated my candor and shared valuable insights on areas for improvement. It was a turning point for me, as I gained constructive feedback that will help me in future interviews. Why don't we ask for feedback more often? Shouldn't HR or interviewers provide actionable insights when we don't clear an interview? I believe it's essential to know what we can improve on, rather than being left in the dark. Let's start a conversation! Should interviewers be more open to providing feedback when candidates don't clear the process? Share your thoughts!" #fresherinterview #feedback

Not getting interview feedback? Here's why I would stop asking: What it's VERY LIKELY to include: 1. Non-specific and generic language 2. From an email you can't reply to 3. Waiting period of 3 months So why did I still send 10 emails asking for feedback after each interview? What I REALLY WANTED it to include: 1. A message reflecting the relationships we built 2. From the person who managed the process 3. Sent just after they made final decisions The reality is that most interview feedback is only useful If you're aim is anxiety and frustration at the process Rather than helpful and actionable insights Chances are you have a good sense of where you went wrong And sometimes the other candidates were just a better fit P.S.

Feedback, what's acceptable? Thanks but no thanks? If a candidate has taken time out to interview, especially if more than one stage, do take the time to offer something constructive. Sometimes, it just wasn't the right culture fit, perhaps a good candidate had a bad day at the interview. Use me as your filter, I can decipher what is useful from this info. Sometimes I am brutally honest, sometimes best to hold some of it back. It's all part of the role, good to have some basis on which to have that often difficult discussion.

One of the most common interview questions that many candidates struggle with is "Tell me about yourself." It may seem simple, but it's actually one of the most critical questions you'll be asked during the interview. If you can't articulate who you are and what you bring to the table, how can you expect to convince your interviewer that you're the right person for the job? Therefore, it's essential to know yourself and be able to express your strengths, experiences, and goals clearly. So take some time to reflect on your background, accomplishments, and passions. Craft a compelling narrative that showcases your unique qualities and what sets you apart from other candidates. Remember, this is your chance to make a great first impression and leave a lasting impact on your interviewer. #interviewtips #careeradvice #jobsearch #advice

Interviews are a challenge for both sides of the table - as an interviewer, one of your biggest fears is a false positive hire. Here are some quite insightful suggestions that, in my opinion, help rethink the interviewing process to minimise false positives, such as avoiding rehearsed questions (sliding window, two pointers? and the list goes on on Glassdoor 👆). But how can you avoid rehearsed questions, given that everything eventually becomes a pattern if you use it long enough? There are ways. My favourite listed here: “Assess a candidate’s ability to learn, adapt, and innovate.” with focus on ability. And maybe scoring tops at rehearsed questions is valuable, but in other areas, not in software where you have surprises every day and where what helps you most is your ability to <respond to them>. #falsepositives #processes #interview #rehearsedquestions

Hiring the right candidate isn’t just about filling a position; it’s about finding the perfect fit for your team and company culture. Crafting thoughtful and strategic interview questions can make the difference between a good hire and a great one.
