Project: Interview Questions

2 hours to complete
In this project, you’ll work on your interviewing skills by preparing your responses to common interview questions that you’re likely to encounter, selecting a list of questions you would ask the interviewer, and evaluating how you present yourself while answering questions.
⁠

Deliverable 1:

Answers To Common Questions

Refer back to the different types noted in the lesson on interview questions:
Screening Questions
UX Technical Questions
UX Process Questions
Culture Fit and Working Style Questions
Curveballs
Prepare your responses to some of these, compile those responses in a Google Doc, and submit them for feedback from your Career Coach.
⁠

Deliverable 2:

What To Ask In An Interview

Refer to the questions listed in the lesson on what to ask in an interview. Choose at least 5 questions from the lecture that you would intend to ask, compile them in a Google Doc, and submit them for feedback from your Career Coach.
⁠

Deliverable 3:

Youtube Videos

Watching yourself respond to questions is a great way to improve your interviewing skills, since it helps you to evaluate how you present yourself in terms of body language, intonation, volume, etc. Film yourself responding to a few questions,
upload the videos to YouTube
⁠
, and share the link(s) with your Career Coach. We recommend leaving them unlisted so that they won’t show up in search, but make sure your videos are not private, so that your Career Coach can view them.
