Free Interview Practice Tools

Free Interview Practice Tools

When you start a job search, it’s a good idea to get ready to interview—even before you’ve been selected to meet with a company. A successful interview will be essential for you to lock in a job offer, and this is your chance to impress the interviewer enough to get a second interview or even an offer.

Taking some time to prepare will help you avoid interview stress, especially if you’re asked to interview on short notice. Having interview clothes ready to wear, your technology in order for phone and video interviews, an idea of how you’ll respond to questions, and some questions ready to ask the interviewer, will help make the experience easier.

Practice Answering Interview Questions

One of the best ways to practice for an interview is to spend some time reviewing (and answering) frequently asked interview questions. You’ll be more comfortable responding when you know what you’re going to say.

Free Online Interview Practice Tools

There are free online tools that you can use to help practice answering questions. Here’s a selection of free interview practice tools to try:

Google Interview Warmup
