About this session

Interview preparation is about showing up with clarity, confidence, and a strong sense of how to present your experience. This MentorCruise session is designed to help you prepare for upcoming interviews in a practical, personalized way, whether you are early in your career, making a transition, or aiming for a more competitive role.

You’ll work with an experienced mentor to sharpen your story, improve your answers, and get ready for the questions that matter most. Together, you can practice mock interviews, refine how you talk about your background, prepare for technical or behavioral rounds, and identify the areas that need the most work. The goal is to help you walk into the interview feeling more prepared, more polished, and more confident in your ability to stand out.

Your mentor

With experience as a hiring manager at Amazon and over 160 interviews conducted, I can help you prepare for a Leadership Principles–based interview so you show up confident, clear, and ready to stand out.

Best for:
- Non-technical candidates interviewing at Amazon or similar companies with behavioral interview formats
- Professionals who want to sharpen their STAR storytelling and connect their experience to the role

Before the session:
- Share the job description for the role you’re targeting
-Let me know if there are specific Leadership Principles or areas you’d like to focus on

What to expect:
- We’ll cover 2–4 practice questions in a realistic mock-interview format
- After each question, I’ll give direct, actionable feedback on content, structure, and delivery
- We’ll close with a short summary of strengths and areas to fine-tune
