Ask HN: Can someone mock interview me?

[mcarrano]

I'm a student studying CS and seeking an internship for this summer.

I have had several interviews with financial firms, technology companies, consulting companies, etc.

For a majority of the companies, I have been invited back for second, third and final interviews. However, none have extended an internship offer to me.

It is unfortunate but none of these companies provide any feedback on your interview or give a reason why they chose someone else.

I am wondering if anyone from HN would like to conduct a mock interview with me and to provide feedback on my responses. I know I must be doing something right if I have been invited back for another round of interviews but it never hurts to receive feedback and to have more practice interviewing.

The interview can be conducted using Skype or if you are in the NYC area we can conduct the mock interview in person. I can also provide my resume prior to the interview so you can prepare some questions. (Any advice on making my resume stand out more is appreciated too!)

I am in the middle of my finals so I will not have time for a mock interview until May 9th.

Sure. I can help you out with that. I'm in the NYC area.

Credentials : Ex-Program Manager at MSFT and know how the interview system works there. Went through Techstars and Co-Founder of startup called The Shared Web.

Follow me on Twitter and we can DM to set up a time, if you are interested.

I will definitely take up on your offer. I am now following you on twitter and will be in touch soon.

I am in a similar situation: Final year CS student taking exams and looking for internships. I have been asked to go and have quite some interviews and I thought I am in a really good way to actually get an offer, I guess I was wrong? (the only difference is, I am talking with startups and not large established companies).
