Situation

Set the scene. What was happening, who was involved, and why did it matter?

Built around your next step

Knowing what to say is only part of preparing.

Use role-specific interview questions to identify the experience you want to discuss. Then use voice coaching to work through an answer, respond to follow-up prompts, and notice where your story needs more detail.

Prepare for the stage

Choose recruiter phone screen or hiring manager mode for questions and guidance shaped around the role.

Practice with structure

Work through the STAR method with turn-by-turn coaching. Choose a practice question or add one of your own.

Reflect and improve

Use feedback and a scored debrief to review your practice. Return to the parts of the story that need a clearer explanation.

What is the difference between interview preparation and voice coaching?

Interview preparation generates questions and guidance for your target role and interview stage. Voice coaching is a separate practice workflow for working through an answer with prompts and feedback.

Can I practice a question of my own?

Yes. You can paste or type a question into voice coaching and add it to your practice list.

Do I need a microphone?

You can speak your answers using a microphone or type them when a microphone is unavailable.

Does this simulate a specific company’s interview process?

The preparation uses your role and job description. It does not guarantee that a company will ask those questions or reproduce its actual interview process.

Can I try both on the Free plan?

Yes. Free includes monthly allowances for interview practice and voice coaching. See pricing for the current limits.
