Using AI to Prepare for Interviews
AI is an excellent way to tailor your interview preparation for the specific roles you’re applying for.
You can use Google Gemini, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, or another AI chatbot to learn about what you’ll be asked and to get examples of interview answers. Paste the job description for the position you’re interviewing for in the prompt box and ask for a list of interview questions the hiring manager might ask. Then, you can add the questions to the prompt and ask the chatbot for examples of responses. You can also use AI to practice interviewing and learn more about the companies you’re meeting with.
