The candidate toolkit
- Anchored interview state: build access to your articulate-self in rehearsal, carry it into the room
- Answer architecture: situation-process-result structure beats both rambling and over-rehearsal
- Panel reading: noticing which interviewer holds the decision criteria, and addressing them
- Salary conversation: criteria elicitation before number-anchor — the negotiation page applies
What it is not
No "secret handshakes" or pattern tricks beat preparation and genuine fit. NLP for interviews is state control and structured communication — which is precisely what nervous candidates need.
