How to identify what to improve during interviewing
How can I enhance my performance when I don't receive feedback? Simply providing correct answers doesn't appear to be sufficient to secure the job offer. Idk what to do (non target non diversity)
I had trouble with this and ended up figuring it out and getting a few good offers. Getting the right answer is just the first step. You need to communicate that you're a pleasant person, smart, motivated, sharp, and normal. If you sound like a robot with no personality answering in a way that is clearly scripted, you will not get past a screener at many places.
How can you express your personality when responding to technical questions with only one correct answer? I’m getting past the first round (all behaviors) but when it comes to the technical rounds I don’t understand why I’m not progressing when I’m answering all the questions correctly
You have to strike up personal conversations and seem interested in the interviewers (ask about their background/family/interests). Basically you just need some basic rapport to make a good impression.
I get your point, but I'm unsure how I can interject personal elements when I'm being posed technical questions.
Do you smile? Sound positive and engaged? The soft stuff i guess
I believe so have had no issues with the first round behavioral interviews. It’s typically the super days and technical interviews I’ve gotten dinged at.
You can’t, and you shouldn’t try. Technical questions aren’t the entirety of the interview, however. The very beginning of the call/interview, and the “tell me about yourself” question are most important from a personality standpoint.
Get friends, people a year above you etc to do mock interviews. You can even get one of the WSO mentors if you don't have anyone who would know how to do it. JUst ask them to give you a mock interview and give some honest feedback.
