During behavioral interviews you will be asked to talk about your experiences but knowing how to shape those stories can be a bit challenging. This pilot presentation is designed to help you practice telling your story with confidence and intention.
In Main Character Energy: Owning Your Story in Interviews, Sh’Maughn Wright and Jared Smith host a live conversation with three Duke students as they respond to common behavioral interview questions and reflect on how they approach sharing their experiences. The discussion highlights different ways to structure answers, connect experiences to skills, and stay authentic in the process.
As you watch the video below, try this: pause after each question and record your own answer before hearing the group’s reflections. Practicing this way can help you strengthen your responses for both professional and informational interviews.
If you’d like to keep practicing, you can schedule an appointment with someone in the Career Center through Handshake.
