How to prepare for UX interviews
To crush interviews, you need to:
Know what to expect
- Do some research on the company’s hiring process—whether it’s multiple rounds, design challenges, or team interviews.
- Look up common UX interview questions to get a feel for what to expect.
- Knowing what’s ahead helps you feel more prepared and less anxious.
Be yourself and be honest
- Be authentic in your answers—talk about your strengths, but also be real about areas you’re still working on.
- Don’t try to be perfect; employers just want to get to know the real you.
- If you don’t know something, be honest and show that you’re open to learning.
Show them how you fit in the organisation
- They want to know how you’ll vibe with the team, not just your technical skills.
- Think about how you work with others, handle feedback, and fit into their company culture.
- Do your research on the company’s culture and show how you align with their values.
Master whiteboard challenges
- Don’t stress! Focus on showing your thought process, not just the solution.
- Break the problem down step by step and explain your reasoning as you go.
- They care more about how you think through a problem than getting the “perfect” answer.
