ChatGPT prepped me HARD for my interview!
Spent like two hours on chatgpt yesterday prepping for an interview. First, the usual, copy-pasted my resume and the job description, telling it to "upload this to your memory 'cause we are going to talk about it later". Then I grilled it with questions about stuff I didn't get in the job spec, and chatgpt helped me figure things out. I asked it to list the four or five key things they are looking for in the role. Then I told chatgpt to quiz me with ten questions, one at a time, to help me think about how I have gained experience in those areas. After the ten questions, it gave me strengths/weaknesses and a summary. Finally, I had chatgpt summarize each of my answers into three bullet points. Now have got a list of stories ready to go for any interview. No matter the question, I can steer the convo toward one of these success stories.
