Interview prep

Walk in with your own evidence, organized.

Prep built for one interview at a time: likely questions with tips, talking points that carry your quantified impact and show the resume lines they draw on, a company brief with dated facts, and a plan to practice out loud. It is a first draft, you make it yours.

Your questions for them

Three asks that show you have already thought about how the role actually runs.

questions for them · 3
How is intake performance measured week to week, and who reads the number?
What does this role own outright in the first 90 days?
What broke the last time volume doubled?
04

The company brief

A short summary plus dated facts, the kind an undated claim never earns a place in.

Meridian runs a regional grocery and logistics network, expanding its distribution footprint while holding intake service levels through peak demand.

Mar 2026Opened a second Rotterdam distribution hub.
Jan 2026Grew the grocery network past 40 stores served.
Facts carry dates. Undated claims don't make the brief.
05

The hiring-manager bio

Appears only when the fetched data supports it. No public page, no bio, the prep never guesses at a person.

The practice plan

Spaced across a few days, out loud each time, not a read-through the night before.

todayRead the six questions and the company brief once, out loud.
day 3Say the STAR talking point from memory, against a timer.
day 5Run the panel cold: questions, answers, your questions for them.
out loud, not silent
The grounding

Every line has a source, or it stays out.

The prep draws from three places you can name. What the sources don't support, the session doesn't say.

The listingThe job description and its listed requirements, read as posted, not summarised from a title alone.
The employer's public pagesWhatever the employer's own site makes readable, careers pages, about pages, and any dated announcement the crawl can reach.
Your resumeThe tailored variant submitted with this application when one exists, otherwise your master resume.
the output says what it is: a first draft to personalise. Edit the talking points into your own voice before you walk in, the prep organizes your evidence, it doesn't script you.

FAQ

Questions people ask before an interview that matters.

Short version: your own evidence organized, facts only when the sources support them, and a first draft you personalise.

No, per-application prep sessions are a Pro feature, gated by the interview_prep entitlement, in the dashboard, the ScoutChat flashcard quiz, and Autopilot's on-apply generation. Two free cousins need no login: the Interview Question Bank and the Interview Answer Coach.
