The sharp shooter
In a three person sequential gun battle the bad shooter (B) can hit about one third of targets correctly. The second person (M) is somewhat better with a 50% hit rate. The third shooter(D) is really dangerous, who can hit 100% correctly.
First to shoot will be with lower hit rate i.e. the shooting order will be B, M and D. The battle will continue till there is only one survivor.
The bad shooter (B) hires you as his advisor. What should he do to maximize his chance of survival?

The interview is a game and practice can boost the performance
Taking time to think and writing an answer to the interview question will help you prepare the script. Writing a response sharpens your thought process and gives an opportunity to review the response and make improvement to the script. You don’t need to memorize the answer.
Thinking through, writing and reviewing the response to the interview questions increases preparedness, boosts the confidence and reduces anxiety. It builds up a repertoire of stories for easy retrieval and you can now focus on delivery during the actual interview. Your confidence spirals upwards with each answer and increases the chances of a better outcome.
Prepare well before the interview. Know the common interview questions. Learn the dos and don’ts. Write, practice and improve your specific response either by yourself or by feedback from a family member or a colleague or a teacher. You will gain mastery through practice.
As they say, if you want to be good at something, then you must practice to learn, and grow.
