  • use AI to prepare, note perform
  • draft your own interview responses first, then use AI to improve them
  • personalize all responses and post-interview communication
  • make sure your responses are based on your real experiences you can explain naturally in conversation

  • copy and paste AI-generated content and use it as a script in an interview
  • memorize responses word for word
  • let AI replace your own examples, reflection, or preparation
  • use overly polished or generic language that does not sound natural in conversation
