Learn Behavioral — a practical course for preparing for behavioral interviews in technology companies. You will learn to understand what exactly the interviewer is evaluating, choose the right examples from your experience, and convincingly talk about your achievements, leadership, decision-making, and interactions with people.

The course is based on the experience of conducting over 1,000 behavioral interviews in large technology companies and coaching over 200 candidates. Instead of universal advice like "just use STAR," the program shows how interviewers actually assess candidates and what signals they look for in their responses.

What You Will Learn

You will understand how a behavioral interview is structured and what competencies affect the hiring decision. The core of the course is the Decode → Select → Deliver cycle, which helps systematically answer even unexpected questions.

  • Decode — understand what the interviewer really wants to know from the given question.
  • Select — choose the most appropriate story from your experience considering its scale, relevance, uniqueness, and recency.
  • Deliver — tell the story in a structured and convincing way using the CARL: Context, Actions, Results, Learnings framework.

You will also learn to create your own catalog of professional stories and find examples in your experience that demonstrate the necessary competencies.

What is Evaluated in a Behavioral Interview

The course explains three key dimensions used in evaluating candidates:

  • Signal Areas — eight main competencies, including Ownership, Perseverance, and Conflict Resolution.
  • Company Values — the specific values of the company and the qualities it expects from employees.
  • Cultural Assessment — the characteristics of the corporate culture and the accepted ways of interaction and decision-making within the company.

You will learn to connect interview questions with specific competencies and adapt your answers to meet the company's requirements and culture.

Preparing for the Most Important Questions

Special attention is given to three questions that are particularly common in behavioral interviews:

  • "Tell me about yourself."
  • "Tell me about your favorite project."
  • "Tell me about a conflict."

You will learn how to prepare strong answers, not by memorizing a script, but by using your own professional experience.

Preparing for Interviews in Big Tech

The course examines the characteristics of behavioral interviews in companies like Meta, Amazon, and Google. You will learn how to adjust the wording, emphasis, and delivery of your stories based on the expectations of a specific company.

Special importance is given to approaches for interviews for senior positions, where not only technical knowledge is assessed, but also the ability to independently solve business problems, work with complex teams, build trust, make decisions, and create influence beyond one's immediate team.

Who This Course is For

The course is suitable for developers, engineers, managers, and other specialists who are facing a behavioral interview, especially when applying to large technology companies.

It will be useful both for candidates facing a behavioral interview for the first time and for those who have already undergone technical interviews but were rejected specifically at the behavioral stage.

The main goal of the course is to teach you not just to talk about your experience, but to show through it how you think, make decisions, interact with people, and create results.

Frequently asked questions

What experience should I have before starting?
You'll get more out of the course if you have experiences you can draw on when discussing decisions, achievements, leadership, or working with other people. Those examples are what you'll use to choose and shape your interview stories. You don't need to arrive with polished answers—that's part of the preparation. If you're earlier in your career, there's guidance specifically aimed at choosing responses at the junior level.
What will I actually work on besides watching the videos?
The practical work centers on building a catalog of stories from your own experience and preparing to use them in interviews. You'll work through what a question is really asking, select an example that fits, and organize your response around Context, Actions, Results, and Learnings. Rather than relying on one favorite story for every question, you'll learn to consider factors such as relevance, scale, uniqueness, and recency when choosing an answer.
Is this useful for senior candidates, or is it mostly for people getting their first tech job?
It's aimed at more than just entry-level candidates. The guidance on selecting examples is separated by career level, from junior through senior staff, so you can focus on the expectations relevant to your experience. That makes it worth considering if you're preparing for a more senior role and need to think carefully about which stories to use. The shared focus is still behavioral interviewing at technology companies, rather than general job-search preparation.
How is this different from just learning the STAR method?
The emphasis goes beyond putting a story into a familiar structure. You'll first work out what the interviewer is trying to evaluate, then decide which experience gives you the strongest relevant example. Structuring the response comes after those choices, using CARL: Context, Actions, Results, and Learnings. That distinction matters if your answers already sound organized but you're unsure whether they're actually demonstrating the competency behind the question.
Will this help with coding interviews or system design too?
You should treat this as preparation for the behavioral side of a technology-company interview, not as a replacement for coding or system design study. The focus is on interpreting questions and communicating evidence from your experience, including decisions, leadership, achievements, and interactions with others. If you're preparing for a hiring process that also tests technical skills, you'll still need preparation for those parts alongside the work you do here.
How much time should I set aside?
The 13 lessons have a combined runtime of 3 hours and 46 minutes. That's the viewing time, rather than a reliable estimate for your full preparation. You'll also want time to look back over your experience, put together a story catalog, and practice telling your examples. The amount of extra time will depend on how much preparation you've already done; there's no fixed practice-time estimate provided.
Will I be able to handle unexpected questions, or am I mainly preparing set answers?
The approach is designed to help you respond to unfamiliar questions rather than depend only on memorized answers. You'll practice separating three decisions: what the interviewer wants to understand, which story fits, and how to tell it clearly. Having a catalog of experiences gives you material to choose from, while that decision process helps you adapt. The goal is a repeatable way to prepare and respond, not a script for every possible question.
