One of the biggest mistakes we see candidates make in their interviews is not presenting their accomplishments in a clear and concise way. If an interviewer can’t follow your stories, it’s difficult for them to assess whether you’re a fit for our role and company. That’s why we’re not secretive about our expectations. We ask behavioral-based interview questions and interviewees should use the STAR method to respond. The acronym stands for: Situation, Task, Action, and Results. ⭐ Situation: start with a clear description of a situation you were in. Avoid rambling, but offer enough detail for the interviewer to understand the complexities of it. ⭐ Task: clearly state the goal. ⭐ Action: what steps did you take? What was your contribution? Let us know what you did, not what your team or group did. ⭐ Result: don’t be shy about taking credit. What happened? How did it end? Provide examples using data. This might seem like common sense, but job interviews (at any company!) can be nerve-wracking. Most people feel some sort of pre-interview anxiety no matter what the company is. So, the more someone is prepared with a wide range of thoughtfully organized stories, the more likely they are to set themselves up for success. What other interview tips do you recommend?
