The ten interview questions that come up most, and how to answer them
One page per question: what the interviewer is actually testing, a structure that fits it, one example answer marked as an example, the mistakes people make, and a button that opens the question on camera so you can practise it.
How should I use these pages?
Read the page for a question, decide your real example or reason before you record, then answer it on camera and read the transcript back.
Each page follows the same shape, because the preparation does: what the interviewer is listening for, the structure that answers it, an example written for the page so you can hear the shape, and the mistakes that cost people the question. None of the examples is a real candidate’s, and none is for reading out: change every fact to your own. The button at the end opens the practice page with that question loaded. Two answers are free, with full Pro feedback on each.
The opening question. Present, past, future, in about a minute, ending on this role.
One real moment, what you did about it, and the one thing about this role that made you apply.
The clerkship version: the moment, the test, and why commercial practice in particular.
STAR with everyone’s part named, one decision that relied on someone else, and the group’s result.
The mistake, the next hour, the fix, and the habit you have kept since.
Two legitimate positions, a conversation that found the real issue, and your own part.
A real weakness with a cost, a specific habit, and a modest sign it is improving.
A direction rather than a title, and this role as the next step towards it.
Two or three things the role needs, evidence for each, and the gap named honestly.
One about the work, one from the conversation, one you sincerely want answered.
