blog what-would-you-do-differently-next-time

Dear JobsBlog:
I recently had an interview exactly where the interviewer asked me to describe my newest programming project. After we finished speaking about the undertaking, she asked "What would you do differently next time?” She seemed to be looking for a specific example, but I wasn’t sure. What's the best way to prepare for this question? - Getting ReadyDear Getting Ready:
Your interviewer wasn’t looking for the “ideal answer” amidst your explanation. Rather, she was looking for your ability to be reflective and appropriately self-critical to note where improvements could’ve been made if you had a second shot at it. Think of it as “…and what did you learn?” My thoughts on how to prepare: for every win or loss you’re prepared to speak about, figure out how you would do it better given the chance. Good luck! -Chris -->
