I'd argue his preparation was inadequate. Part of my interview preparation process is to come up with a list of questions to ask based on the research I've done about the company and position.
- kevinburke 6y agoOP here - this kinda feels like telling someone who missed a game winning shot that they should have made the shot. Had I included this in my preparation and gotten the scholarship I would not have written the blog post about how failure to prepare in one key way led to me not getting a scholarship. In any case I've updated the wording to make my intent more clear.
- theonething 6y agoNot exactly. I think a more apt analogy is a person who missed the game winning three point shot who only practiced inside shots. You'd want to tell the person they should probably round out their practice routine with outside shots as well.
