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.

Hi there! I'm helping with technical mock interviews for software engineering roles: coding, problem solving, system design and behavioral. I strongly prefer using expandable questions that let the interviewer assess candidates' skills in depth, rather than asking a brain teaser with a definite correct answer.

I've worked at all types of companies - from small startups to Silicon Valley Big Tech (Twitter, Uber, Fitbit). I've been doing interviews for most of my 15 years in software engineering. I ran more than 800 interviews for a variety of roles: software engineer (backend primarily, but also mobile, web), product manager, engineering manager, scrum master. What adds to this is that I've been on all sides of the interviewing table - from running it as a hiring manager, tech lead, peer software engineer to inevitably being an interviewee myself.

I want my rich and diverse interviewing experience to help you prepare for upcoming interviews and land your dream job!
