• Read about the elevator pitch and prepare yours!

• Questions for the end of the interview. Having questions for the interviewer shows engagement and interest. Prepare questions for the interviewer. A few examples:

  • Based on our discussion, what value do you feel I could bring to the team?

  • Are there any gaps in my experience that you are concerned about?

  • What are the next steps and when should I be expecting to hear from you?

  • What is the tech stack of your company?

  • What do the internal processes at your company look like? (workflow, growth plan, onboarding plan)

  • What is the team composition? (the team you are interviewing for)

  • What is the most important trait of the position?

  • Questions that matter to you (depends on your personal circumstances, maybe you would like to work remotely, maybe you would like to have a mentor, etc.)
