Habit stacking is a technique where you link a new habit or task to an existing one so it's easier to form.
To prepare for an interview, start small by reviewing your resume after breakfast each day.
Then, build on that by following it with researching common interview questions while you commute.
Next, add practicing answers aloud in your car or on a walk.
Gradually increase difficulty by recording mock interviews on your phone and reviewing where you can improve.
Soon, your routine will be:
breakfast > resume review > research questions > practice answers > mock interview.
Then, take it a step further. After work, fit in calling contacts for referrals during your regular exercise.
Follow exercise with reviewing your networking and researching the company more in-depth.
Right before bed, update your notes so it's fresh in your mind.
Within a few weeks, all these small, connected habits will have you fully prepared without much effort since it's just an extension of your daily routine.
Habit stacking makes interview prep seamless and ensures you put your best foot forward on the big day!
