A job interview is about much more than your CV. Employers want to understand how you contributed to previous projects and the value you brought to the team.
Before your interview, choose three projects that you can discuss with confidence. Be prepared to answer questions such as:
- What was your role within the project?
- What technical challenges did you face?
- What decisions did you make, and why?
- What was the final result?
- What did you learn from the project?
Try not to focus solely on describing the project itself. Instead, explain your personal contribution and the impact you made. That's what employers are really interested in.
