Module 3: Use it for your job search today

Course outline

Quick check

Guess first, no penalty. What's the best way to practise for an interview with AI?

An AI app can act as an interviewer. It asks a question, waits for your answer, then tells you how you did.

A full prompt

A prompt is the message you send to an AI. This one sets up a practice round for a hospital job:

You are an interviewer for a ward assistant job at a hospital.
Ask me: "Tell me about yourself." Then wait for my answer.
After I answer, tell me one thing I did well and one thing to improve. Use simple English.

Prompt

You are an interviewer for a shop assistant job. Ask me 'Why do you want this job?' Then wait for my answer.

AI is often too kind. If it says "Great answer!", send this:

Be a strict interviewer. What is the weakest part of my answer? Give me 2 things to improve.
