By the end

You walk in prepared, not nervous.

  • Five STAR stories tightened and memorised for this specific JD
  • At least one full mock round done out loud, with feedback from Ace
  • A salary number and three strong closing questions ready to pull out
  • A written 24-hour game plan — what to re-read, when to sleep, what to wear
01

Brief Ace on the role

Open Ace in Soriz and give him everything at once: the full job description, your current resume, the company name, the round type (recruiter / hiring-manager / technical / panel / final), and when the interview is. That's your prep foundation.

Example opener: "Ace, interview Thursday. Role: Senior PM at a fintech in Bangalore. Here's the JD [paste]. Here's my resume [paste]. It's round 2 — hiring manager. Help me get ready."
Pro tip: Ace has long-term memory. If you've prepped for interviews with him before, he already knows your stories — you just need to point him at the new role.
02

Build your STAR stories

Ask Ace: "What are the 5 most likely behavioural questions for this JD?" He'll list them. For each, draft a 4-beat answer in STAR format — Situation, Task, Action, Result. Ace will tighten them, flag vague parts, and push for real numbers where you're hand-waving.

Example STAR draft: "Situation: our app had a 30% D7 drop. Task: diagnose and fix before board review. Action: shipped onboarding redesign in 2 weeks. Result: D7 retention back to 58%." Ace's feedback: "Good — but what was the before number? And what did you personally own vs the team?"
Pro tip: save your finalised STAR stories in the chat with a clear label. Next time an interview comes up, tell Ace "pull my stories" — they're right there.
03

Run a mock round

Say: "Ace, grill me like the hiring manager for this role. 8 questions. No hints." Answer each as you would in the real room. Once you're done, ask for feedback on clarity, specificity, energy, and cultural fit. Rerun the weak ones.

Example Ace question: "Walk me through a time you disagreed with a senior leader. What did you do?" You answer. Ace: "Solid framing but your Action was 3 sentences of context — tighten it. Start with the actual move you made."
Pro tip: do at least one mock out loud. Reading answers is different from saying them. Your mouth needs the reps, not just your brain.
04

Drill salary + close-out questions

The two moments most people bomb — asking the money question and answering "so, do you have any questions for us?" — deserve their own session. Ace helps you land on a number backed by market research and rehearses the exact phrasing. He'll also suggest 3 strong closing questions tailored to the company.

Example script Ace helps draft: "Based on the scope and the market for senior PMs in Bangalore, I'm targeting ₹X lakh. I'm open to a conversation around OTE and equity — what's the band you're working with?" Three closer questions: about the 90-day bar, the team's biggest open problem, and what "great" looks like after 6 months.
05

Lock a 24-hour game plan

Night before: ask Ace to write you a 24-hour plan. Exactly what to re-read, when to stop prepping, when to sleep, what to eat, what to wear, what to do in the 30 minutes before the call. Save it. Follow it. Don't freelance the day-of — let the plan carry you.

Example plan chunk: "Evening before: skim your top 3 STAR stories. No mocks after 9pm. Sleep by 11. Morning of: light breakfast, no new coffee brand, 10 minutes of box breathing. Re-read the JD once. Close laptop 5 mins before to just breathe. Go."
Pro tip: after the interview, come back and tell Ace how it went — what questions were asked, where you stumbled. Next round gets sharper. That's the point of a companion vs a one-off chat.

One evening with Ace beats a week of anxiety.

Real questions before you start.

How is Ace different from a generic AI chatbot for interview prep? +

Ace is a dedicated career companion with long-term memory about your career, not a blank assistant. He remembers your role, goals, past interviews, and strengths across sessions — so prep gets sharper over weeks, not reset every chat.

Can Ace do mock interviews by voice? +

Voice mock interviews are rolling out on Soriz for select companions including Ace. You can already run text-based mocks today, which helps with structure and content before you move to verbal delivery.

Is Ace free to use? +

Yes. Ace is one of the 20 built-in companions and is free on the Soriz basic plan with unlimited text chat. SorizPro at $9.99/mo adds custom companions and chat import on top of that.

What info should I give Ace to start interview prep? +

Paste the job description, your current resume, the company name, the round type (recruiter screen, hiring-manager, panel, technical, final), and the date. That's enough context for a focused first session.

Can Ace help with technical interviews too? +

Ace is strongest on behavioural, storytelling, and senior-level rounds. For deep technical coding or case math, pair Ace with a dedicated tool for the problem-solving part and bring the takeaways back to him for framing and delivery.

How far in advance should I start using Ace before an interview? +

A week is ideal. You can absolutely prep in a single evening with Ace if you're up against the wall — but spacing sessions across a few days lets stories settle and mock feedback compound.
