Before the Interview

Professional recruiters and interviewers are trained to ask open ended questions. They are looking for a response in STAR format. That means Situation, Task, Action, Result. Have a friend or your AI act an an interviewer and practice your answers to common interview questions. ANY question in an interview that starts with "Tell me about a time when," is a prompt for you to answer in STAR format, its also a nice time so say, "I appreciate interviewing with someone who's been properly trained," Even if you don't say that, know you are talking to someone who has been formally trained to give an interview. If they hear you give a STAR formatted answer they will also know YOU were prepared and that is a very good sign a trained recruiter will be looking for!
