My biggest fear: behavioral questions and a junior interview with no experience

I'd just finished a course with zero real interview experience. I was terrified of the 'trick' recruiter questions like 'Where do you see yourself in 5 years?' and had no idea how to talk about my projects using the STAR method.

With Cue

The AI simulator and practicing answers with the STAR method

In the week before the interview I ran 5 sessions in Cue's AI simulator. The AI recruiter grilled me with tough questions, analyzed my delivery, and showed me where my answers sounded unsure or too vague.

Result

An offer from a BigTech company on the first try

In the real interview I was cool as a cucumber — we'd already worked through 80% of the questions in the simulator. I got an offer from a top tech company.
