Today, we’re talking about how to prepare for your accelerator program interview. Getting selected is competitive, so make the most of your opportunity through preparation.
1. Use Online Resources
You can find lists of practice questions, detailed guides and even interview simulators online. Make use of these tools.
2. Model Answers
Make a list of expected questions and draft model answers. Practice as a team and ensure all co-founders have a speaking role. A boisterous CEO with a silent technical co-founder is not a good look.
3. Alumni Practice Interviews
Reach out to accelerator alumni in your network or on social media to arrange practice interviews. Their experiences and direct feedback will refine your performance. I suggest getting 3 mock interviews before the real thing.
Best of luck out there.
