 Support stories
Find a common support story for the following questions:
Greatest & weakest points of your career
Have you ever admitted you'd set your sights too high (or too low)?
Leadership
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

→ identify key concepts
e.g. rationale & buzzwords head hunters expect to hear from you
→ choose & prepare a support story
e.g. recall surprising facts & figures, metrics
→ answer the question with a relevant narrative structure
e.g. STAR, CARL, BLUF, Minto / McKinsey Pyramid
→ think of additional 2-3 follow-up questions
e.g. about details you have omitted on purpose to encourage the head hunter to ask you about
→ use the following AI prompt to facilitate oral delivery of your notes
Make short sentences using the past participle or infinitive form and bullet points for each idea
