I interviewed at First Co. (Hong Kong) in Jan 2026
Interview
To talk about how an interview went, focus on positive aspects like enjoying the conversation and learning something new, express continued interest, and briefly mention specific topics discussed, while keeping it professional and confident, even if you felt it was awkward. For recruiters asking, share your general positive impression, but also subtly gauge their feedback on other candidates to understand where you stand. Signs of a good interview include engaged conversation, longer duration, positive body language, and discussion of next steps or team members.
How to respond (to a recruiter/hiring manager)
Be positive but honest: "It went really well, I enjoyed our discussion on [topic]. I'm very interested in the role.".
Ask about their process: "It went well! I'm curious, how many other candidates are you interviewing for this role?".
Show self-awareness (if needed): If it felt off, you can say, "I enjoyed the conversation and learned a lot. I'm keen to hear your thoughts on how it went from your perspective.".
