Answers

The sample answers in the 10xresume/dev ↗︎ repository contain only Lorem_ipsum ↗︎. Candidates must replace these placeholders with meaningful answers.

Danger

Candidates should take care to keep their answers professional. This is especially important for the questions pertaining to past mistakes, struggles and unhappy times. Candidates should do their best to maintain a positive or neutral tone in their answers.

Complaining about unfair circumstances and bad-mouthing previous employers and coworkers is a mistake which will leave a poor impression on reviewers. Every job has challenges. Candidates should focus on explaining the lessons they learned facing them and how their struggles made them stronger and better prepared for challenges to come.
