It doesn't matter which framework to use. It matters to give a structure and don't ramble through a random story.
I have seen interviewers asking to provide the feedback "put stories in STAR format" before the interview just to be able to gather the information efficiently
Thanks, John! I wasn't aware of any of these frameworks, but they remind me of how I used to structure case studies for my company blog to give a better overview of how my services help clients.
Although I have never done a competency-based interview, I think the sales calls were close to that. When a future client asks you why they should spend their $50k on you instead of someone else, you better have all your competencies together. 😃
100% Aligned!

Glad to hear it's useful.
I've often argued that interviewing (and a lot of what we do) is selling...
I believe it is selling! 💯 💯
Good post, any thoughts on PEDALS?
It's focused on system design rather than being general. I'm not familiar with it.
