Hey lads, This week I’ll have 6 full loops but I’d consider my Achilles heel those bullshit questions reg behavioral stuff. How can I prepare for them 1 day before my loop? Is there any exhaustive list I can read to maximize the chances of hearing the question beforehand so that I can say answer with bullshit as well? Also for design interviews, are the questions all about: “why are you choosing that tech stack type of thing”? TC: 220K
Design interview - watch YouTube man!
a lot of behavior questions are really the same few questions reworded, you need to be able to identify what is the underlying question and have stories ready Like “tell me about a time you solved a conflict” can be worded “tell me about a time you were a hero” or “tell me about a time you disagreed with your coworker”
Any good resource for these type of questions?
There’s a bunch of lists of top questions but if you know the company you are targeting look up their core values and shape your stories to each value https://prepfully.com/interview-questions/meta you can use this website and see some sample questions for companies

I have never been thru loop but my 2 cents regarding design questions are : why did you pick this design option vs the other one OR it could be a scenario based like I want to build X where I anticipate users will do Y while these other people will do Z. Walk me thru your design. For behavioral stuff it’s really tough if you haven’t been thru some of things that directly relate to amazons leadership principles. I feel like cooking weird stories to fit into their LP is such bullshit. There is no way you can say that yes I lived thru all 16 of your design principles. So then at that point, it’s about how much your brain believes the lies it cooks up. Some people are good at tricking their brain into believing a make believe story. Sometimes people do a lot of introspection or they are self critical and they are the ones who struggle to believe their own cooked up BS because one part of the brain is actively tell them: “ you are so full of shit. I got u all figured out”. These type of people may not do well in Loop if they are bluffing
