Custom questions are interview questions you've added manually for a specific job — they always appear in mock sessions for that role. Pin as required, link a STAR for memory prompts, and add notes. You can also auto-extract questions from a JD or CV.

Custom questions

If you know specific questions are coming up — from the recruiter, the JD, a friend who interviewed for the same role — add them as custom questions. They'll always be included in your mock sessions for that job.

Add custom questions from the Practice dashboard's "My Questions" panel, or per-application in the prep page. For each question you can:

Pin it as required — guaranteed to appear in any session for this job.
Link a STAR — pre-select which story you'll use to answer it. The session will show the linked STAR's bullet points as a memory prompt.
Add notes — anything you want surfaced when this question comes up.

Custom questions count toward your session question count. If you add 5 custom questions and request 8 questions in setup, the AI generates 3 more to fill the gap.

You can also extract questions automatically from a JD or a CV — paste the text and the app pulls out (or generates) likely questions. Useful if you have a long JD and want to seed the list.
