Visiting Recruiters

Preparing for interviews can be nerve-wracking—especially when you're not sure how to structure your answers or highlight what sets you apart. In this 30-minute session, three recruiters from Verkada will break down the essentials of successful interviewing, with a focus on the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to help you craft clear, compelling responses.

We’ll walk through:

What to do—and what to avoid—during interviews

How to showcase traits like motivation, competitiveness, and coachability (especially for sales roles)

Real examples and mini role plays to see STAR in action

Live insights from recruiters who interview hundreds of candidates each month

Whether you're prepping for your first interview or looking to sharpen your skills, this session will give you practical tools to communicate your story with confidence and land the role.
