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

Do you have an upcoming big interview? In this 1-to-1 session, I will provide you with actionable feedback on your interview presence and readiness. I will ask you to choose any of the following areas to practice on:

1. Design challenge
2. Self-presentation
3. Storytelling Skills
4. Portfolio Walkthrough
5. App/Web critique

We will also cover other topics including:

- UX Knowledge gaps
- Answers that might put off the interviewer
- Communication issues
