After conducting hundreds of interviews, I've noticed some recurring mistakes that candidates make. Let me share them so you can avoid them:
Not researching the company - Always know the company's mission, recent news, and key products/services.
Speaking negatively about previous employers - Focus on what you learned, not what went wrong.
Not asking questions - Prepare at least 3-5 thoughtful questions about the role and company.
Rambling answers - Practice concise responses using the STAR method.
Arriving late - For in-person interviews, arrive 10-15 minutes early. For virtual, log in 5 minutes before.
