Hello there 😎 

Generic interview preparation doesn’t cut it anymore.

I get it. It’s easy. It’s what you know.

It’s how I used to prep for interviews—and for a long time, these are tactics I recommended to my clients, e.g.

  • Googling sample interview questions

  • Practicing answers in your head

  • Mock interviews with friends

But the tooling to help you nail your interviews has up-leveled 10x in the last 3 months (and they're free). If you’re not taking advantage, you’re literally leaving money on the table.

You can create a full-on AI interview coach with full context on yourself and the roles and companies you’re applying for, in a few minutes. And that coach is there with you 24-7, never getting tired and always ready to tweak your approach.

Let’s jump into it.

🤖 How to build your personal interview coach

Start by creating a dedicated AI project in Claude or ChatGPT. Name it "[Company] Interview Prep."

✍️ Then give your coach a clear persona with this system prompt:

"You are my interview coach for [Company] [Role]. Challenge my thinking, point out gaps in my answers, and help me structure responses using frameworks. Be direct about weaknesses. I need to be ready, not comfortable."

👉 How to set up your system prompt:

  • ChatGPT: Create a project (sidebar) → Add custom instructions or paste your system prompt in the project settings.

  • Claude: Create a project (sidebar) → Click "Set custom instructions" → Paste your system prompt in the project knowledge section.

The secret sauce is feeding it all the context it could use. I’m talking about:

  • Your resume

  • Job descriptions

  • Company 10-K filings

  • Research dossiers

  • Recent earnings calls

  • Product screenshots

  • Interview questions (pull from Exponent or Glassdoor)

📝 Put it to work at every phase

Once your AI interview coach is locked in, put it to work every chance you can:

Before applying:

"Review this job description. What skills should I emphasize?"

Before interviews:

"Give me 10 likely questions for a [role] at [company]."

”Role play an interview with me. Ask me 1 question at a time. When we’re done, give me detailed feedback on my answers.”

After each round:

"Here's how I answered X. How could I improve?"

The AI remembers everything. It knows your background, the company's priorities, and can spot patterns in your weak answers that you'd miss.
