The Danger Zone: Top Reasons Candidates Fail

Based on our database of Roboxi interview outcomes, avoid these common traps:

  • Failing to mention how they sought to gather more information or mitigate the uncertainty
  • Focusing only on personal career goals without connecting them to the company
  • Giving a generic answer about wanting to work at a 'cool tech company'
  • Not defining baseline metrics before launch
