Online Mock Interview Practice: A 7-Day Plan to Level Up

Confidence is a by-product of repetitions. The challenge is making practice consistent, targeted, and quick to set up. This 7-day plan fits busy schedules and maps practice directly to the jobs you’re pursuing. Run it inside Careerday to connect prep to each job card, amplifying your progress over time.

The Plan

• Day 1 – Story audit (STAR): Draft six stories (impact, conflict, leadership, failure, cross-team, ambiguity). Keep each to 90 seconds with a crisp outcome.
• Day 2 – Role deep dive: Identify 6–8 core competencies from the JD. Turn each into a prompt (e.g., ‘Prioritization trade-offs in roadmap planning’).
• Day 3 – Behavioral drill: Record three questions; focus on concise set-ups and quantified results. Review transcripts to spot weak phrasing.
• Day 4 – Technical/case simulation: Timed exercises with rubric-based scoring. For non-technical roles, run a situational exercise (escalation, stakeholder management).
• Day 5 – Mock panel: Simulate recruiter, hiring manager, and peer. Practice transitions and clarifying questions.
• Day 6 – Negotiation practice: Run compensation scenarios; practice anchoring and non-salary levers (bonus, equity, remote).
• Day 7 – Review & refine: Analyze scorecards, highlight reusable phrasing, and schedule next week’s focus areas.

Make Feedback Work for You

Great feedback is specific and repeatable. Save your best answers inside the job card; tag them by competency for quick refresh. Convert misses into drills and re-test two days later. Over a month, you’ll hear your delivery tighten and see Interview→Offer rates improve in your Careerday pipeline.
