The initial screen was on Zoom. The interviewer asked about my skills within this role, my past experiences, and some technical questions. I was asked to rate my skills in different areas such as speaking, programming, and finance.
Before the interview, I made sure my resume was updated and I spent time on preparation and practice. I knew there would be questions about my background, skills, strengths, and weaknesses, so I tried to have clear answers ready. During the conversation I focused on confidence, good body language, and eye contact to make a strong first impression. I had researched the company, thought about my career goals, and tried to show a professional attitude. Afterward, I sent a follow-up email to thank them for the opportunity and ask for feedback.
