Find your way around ChatGPT
Pick a quick or a thinking answer, find the tools menu, and get a useful first result for a job interview.
Use more than the message box
It’s easy to use ChatGPT for months and only ever type a question and read the reply. That works, but it misses a lot. In this lesson, you’ll find the rest while you prepare for a job interview. Imagine you’ve applied to be a customer support team lead at Tidewell, an online store for kitchen and home goods. Tidewell is made up for this lesson. Your interview is on Thursday. By the end, you’ll have a short brief on what the employer wants, a 60-second answer to “Tell me about yourself” and a round of practice questions.
