Interview Reloaded Workbook
Interview Reloaded: The Workbook
Stop winging it. Start walking in ready.
You know your résumé got you in the room. Now you need to not talk yourself out of the job once you're there.
I've spent my career on the hiring side of the table — screening, interviewing, and making the final call on who gets the offer. The candidates who lose out rarely lack the qualifications. They lose because they rambled through a behavioral question, forgot to research who they were actually talking to, or let a good interview go cold with no follow-up.
Interview Reloaded is the fill-in workbook that fixes all of it — one page at a time.
What's Inside
- STAR Story Templates — Five fillable Situation-Task-Action-Result worksheets (plus a worked example) so you walk in with real, memorable answers instead of improvising on the spot.
- Research Before You Walk In — A step-by-step guide to researching the company and the specific humans interviewing you — including a panelist research worksheet for panel interviews, so you can prep a tailored question for every person across the table.
- Difficult-Question Exercises — The 8 questions that derail good candidates (weaknesses, gaps, salary, conflict, and more), each with the trap to avoid, tips for answering, and space to draft your real answer.
- Smart Questions to Ask the Employer — Categorized questions that double as red-flag detectors, so you're evaluating them as much as they're evaluating you.
- Zoom Interview Checklist — Everything to check the night before, the hour before, and during the call — plus what to do when the tech breaks mid-interview.
- Thank-You Message Templates — Ready-to-personalize scripts for a standard follow-up, a panel interview, and a "haven't heard back" nudge.
Why It Works
This isn't generic interview advice you've read a hundred times. It's a workbook — every page asks you to write something down, so you leave with actual answers, actual questions, and an actual plan instead of a vague sense that you "should be more prepared."
Format: Editable Word document (.docx) — fill it in digitally or print it out.
Perfect for: Job seekers prepping for an upcoming interview, career changers, new grads, and anyone who wants to stop feeling caught off guard by "tell me about a time you failed."
Get ready. Get in the room. Get the offer.
