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
I’m a senior UX researcher, career coach and studio co-founder with extensive experience on both sides of the interview process. I’ve successfully interviewed for research roles throughout my career and have interviewed and hired UX researchers, including freelance subcontractors I continue to hire today.
I’ll run a realistic mock interview tailored to your target role and level, followed by clear, actionable feedback on the strength, structure and delivery of your answers. We’ll identify what’s working, strengthen any weaker areas and help you approach the real interview with greater confidence.
