Overview

This video provides a strategy for preparing for non-technical interviews using AI tools to answer behavioral and situational questions efficiently. The presenter highlights the limitations of traditional preparation methods and introduces two frameworks—CALL for behavioral questions and RCS for situational questions—which streamline and improve the preparation process using AI-generated prompts.

Key Points

Interview Question Types

• Behavioral Questions: Focus on past experiences. Begin with phrases like "Tell me about a time when...".

Frameworks for Preparation

1. CALL Framework for Behavioral Questions:

   • Context: Set the scene.
   • Action: Describe what you did.

   • Structure Your Thoughts: Organize your response.

Using AI for Preparation

• Chat GPT Prompts:
  • Create concise, framework-based answers tailored to personal experiences.
