Checklist for interviews

  • Prepare for the interview:

    1. Research the company for ~15 minutes.

      • This is what the RateIt CEO recommended.

    2. Try to come up with some suggestions / ideas for the company.

      • The RateIt CEO gave me this idea.

  • Do the interview:

    • Flatter the interviewer.

      • I think I got this tip from Spencer Greenberg, who read it in a study.

    • Try to get the interviewer to as much of the talking as possible.

      • I read this somewhere...

    • Express confidence.

      • ...in your ability to pick up any new skills you may need to know.

      • The RateIt CEO complimented me on that.

      • ...in your manner / tone ("shake hands firmly")

      • The $250k Airbnb guy stressed this to his students.
