Alex opens each of the five areas below with a question like the one shown, then builds the follow-ups from what you actually say: what you did, what happened, what you would change. There is no fixed script, so no two Paleontologist interviews are the same — but these are the themes every one of them covers.
A realistic role brief — not a vacancy at a specific company. The interview is pitched at this work and these expectations.
Each is scored against the level you chose — Entry / Junior · Mid-level · Senior · Lead / Staff / Principal — with the quote and the timestamp behind every score.
