The best way to prepare for competency Based and Technical questions is to reflect on your experience.

Hiring manager are looking to get as much information out of you as possible, so make sure your responses provide all the necessary information for the interviewer to understand the scope of your answer. As well as this, it’s important to have competency based and technical question examples ready with your answers to ensure you’re prepared for the real thing. Often, hiring manager will focus on instances of past failures or successes. Admitting your failures will not reflect negatively on your interview if you relate how, you remedied the situation, what you learned, and how you plan to avoid making the same mistake again.
