How to Prep for a Job Interview in Under a Week
A 6-day interview prep plan that covers behavioral, technical, and closing questions — without cramming.
The plan
• **Day 1**: Re-read the JD, list the 5 skills they care most about.
• **Day 2**: Draft one STAR story per skill. Keep each under 90 seconds.
• **Day 3**: Research the company — mission, latest launch, top 3 competitors.
• **Day 4**: Practice out loud. Record yourself. Cut fillers.
• **Day 5**: Prep 5 great questions to ask them.
• **Day 6**: Sleep well. Skim your notes once.
The shortcut
Generate custom behavioral and technical questions from your resume + JD using ResumeHQ's Interview Prep tool — you'll get exactly what they're likely to ask.
