Interviews
What employers & leaders actually look for.
4 interviews published. Every one is conducted by a youth researcher and reviewed before publication.
Amaka Okeke
Head of Talent, Northwind Logistics
Amaka has hired more than 400 early-career employees over the last decade. She explains why judgment, not credentials, is the trait she screens for first — and why that single shift would change how most young people prepare for interviews.
David Mensah
Director of Engineering, Helios Robotics
David walks through a year-long internal study at Helios on what differentiates the top 10% of new graduate hires. The pattern was clear — and most universities are not preparing for it.
Yusuf Bello
Civic Programs Lead, OpenCity Foundation
Most young people who want to influence public life never speak in public. Yusuf argues that the most effective civic actors he funds are the quiet ones, and explains how he spots them.
Priya Raman
AI Product Lead, Lumen Health
Priya leads a team of fifteen, more than half of them under 28. She breaks down the three AI workflows that actually move the needle in her team — and the one that wastes everyones time.
