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
As a senior UX designer with 8+ years of experience, I've prepped for hundreds of interviews myself, and been on the other side of the interview as well for all types of candidates. The interview is the key way to get your foot in the door with the team, and it's more than just showcasing your work. In these sessions, we will practice what you prepare, how you say it, and key contextual strategies that directly relate your interview to the context of the team.
