Interview Preparation with

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.

As a hiring manager with a decade of experience, I regularly conduct interviews as part of my day job at Zalando, screening and interviewing candidates for software engineering roles. This means I can provide you with an authentic interview experience that mirrors exactly what you'll face in real interviews.

I regularly conduct mock interview sessions, typically scheduled during weekday evenings (CET) and weekends. Having evaluated hundreds of candidates and helped many mentees at Techlabs prepare for interviews that led to job offers, I understand what interviewers look for and what signals—both positive and concerning—stand out during interviews.

My approach follows standard interviewing procedures (40 minutes of interviewing, 20 minutes of directed feedback), focusing on identifying knowledge gaps, communication issues, behaviors that might throw off hiring managers, and other important signals.
