I have been invited to interview; how do I prepare?

Prepare S.T.A.R. stories based on the job description, and practice behavioral interview questions using the Quinncia tool. Additionally, think about how to answer questions like “Tell me about yourself” and “Why should we hire you?”. These types of questions should be answered by giving a brief (60 seconds) explanation of who you are, what you’re doing now at UTD, and how your career goals align with the company and the job for which you are applying. You should also make an appointment with a JSOM CMC Career Development Specialist in Handshake, and register for our job interview workshops.
