Before you start

  • The job description
  • An up-to-date CV

Tools you'll use

  • ChatGPT (voice mode)
  • SynaBot

Steps

  1. 1

    Give the assistant the JD and your CV

    Paste both. Ask it to identify the 5 competencies most likely to come up.

  2. 2

    Draft a STAR story for each

    For each competency, write one Situation/Task/Action/Result story from your actual experience.

  3. 3

    Ask for a stress test

    Prompt: "Play the role of the hiring manager. Ask me a hard behavioral question on each competency. Push back on my answers."

  4. 4

    Practice the questions you'll ask

    Ask the assistant for the 5 sharpest questions you could ask about the role or the company at the end of the interview.

  5. 5

    Do a 45-minute live rehearsal

    Use voice mode and speak your answers out loud. Reading is not the same skill.

What you'll have at the end

You walk in with strong STAR stories, a plan for tough questions, and sharp questions of your own.
