Description: So you got that interview phone call. It's been a few weeks since you submitted the resume, and this is your first interview.  What are you feeling in that moment? Nervous energy? Anxiety? Uncertainty? All of the above, probably.   These are all too common feelings. This is how I felt when I got a recruiter email from Amazon.  She wanted to set up a screening interview with one of their Technical Product Managers.  She really liked my resume and wanted to help me get through the first round, so she sent me all manner of resources to help me prepare.And I did. I spent a few days combing through the material, watching YouTube videos, and reading books, practicing "Tell me about a time ..." questions. Yet, I was still a nervous wreck when the interviewer called. And luck would have it that my interviewer was a high-ranking Amazon manager. On my first interview. The next hour of the interview was a blur. She asked me questions. I answered as best I could. When it came time to close the interview, I knew I wasn't getting to the next round.  So I decided to ask only one question: "Do you have any feedback for me?" She paused for a moment and then said:  “You seemed prepared, but you lack clarity in your answers. Clear communication is what’s required at Amazon.”Her answer changed my life.Even though I prepared for my interviews, preparation isn’t enough if you don’t have a good structure. Especially if you don’t have an understanding of why interviewers ask you questions or what they are looking for in your answers.I needed a structure. I needed a system to help me nail each and every question.I embarked on a journey to learn how to answer interview questions better. I discovered that knowing how to answer wasn’t enough.</strong
