Hi networkers,
Today’s a special newsletter, notice the logo above? It’s our 1st ever sponsored article!
Moving forward, I promise to only show ones I have personally used and think we could all benefit from.
With that said, if you’re looking to improve your AI prompting skills like I am, Prompts Daily is definitely worth a visit, but more on that later.
On today’s topic, I’ve been testing out a pretty cool AI platform.
Imagine ChatGPT, except it sounds human, has emotional intelligence, and adapts to your personality.
It’s called Pi.Ai and today we’ll be discussing some prompts you can use to supercharge your interview preparations.
Here’s the route for today

TOPIC
Using AI for Interview Prep
From stuttering, pausing, and expressive tones, Pi does a crazy job of sounding human. (On mobile version)
Which is why it’s great for interview prep. After all, you want to mimic the actual scenario right?
So imagine having an AI that can sound human and comes equipped with the knowledge to ask role-relevant questions.
Use These Prompts
Enough praise, let’s get to practice.
Here’s how I prompted it to role-play as the hiring manager for this job post from Deloitte.
Me: Hi Pi, I need your help practicing for an interview by role-playing as the hiring manager. What information would you need to mimic the accuracy of the questions they would ask?
🤖 Pi: Absolutely, I can help you with that! To make the role-play as accurate as possible, it would be helpful if you could provide me with some information about the job you’re interviewing for. Here are some key details that would be useful:
1. The job title and industry: Knowing the specific role and industry will help me tailor the questions to the position you’re applying for.
2. The job description: If you can share the job description or some of the key responsibilities, I can craft questions that are relevant to the role.
3. The company's values and mission: Understanding the company’s values and mission will allow me to ask questions that are aligned with their goals and expectations.
4. Any specific skills or qualifications they’re looking for: If the job description highlights any particular skills or qualifications, I can incorporate these into the questions to ensure they’re relevant to the role.
Me: 1. Job title is Audit & Assurance - New Grad 2025. The industry is auditing.
2. [Here I copied and pasted the job description]
3. [Here I copied and pasted Deloitte’s “Our Purpose” section]
4. [Here I copied and pasted the skills listed on the job page]
🤖 Pi: Thank you for providing these details about the Audit & Assurance position at Deloitte. Using this information, I'll create a series of interview questions that you're likely to encounter. Let's begin the role-play:
1. What motivated you to apply for the Audit & Assurance role at Deloitte, and how do you see yourself contributing to our company's mission and values?
2. Can you walk us through a time when you demonstrated leadership and took the initiative in a professional or academic setting?
3. How do you stay updated on new trends and innovations within the auditing industry, and how do you incorporate this knowledge into your work?
4. What experience do you have with data analytics, and how would you utilize these skills to provide valuable insights for our clients?
5. Describe a situation in which you had to adapt to change or embrace a new idea. How did you handle the situation, and what was the outcome?
Me: Thank you! Could you also come up with some technical questions they could ask me?
🤖 Pi: Absolutely! Here are some technical questions that you might be asked in an interview for an Audit & Assurance role at Deloitte:
1. What is the difference between a financial audit and a compliance audit? Can you provide an example of each?
2. How do you ensure the accuracy and reliability of financial statements during an audit?
3. What methods do you use to assess and mitigate risks during an audit engagement?
4. What experience do you have with auditing software and tools, such as ACL, IDEA, or Tableau? How have you utilized these tools to improve audit efficiency and effectiveness?
5. What are some common financial ratios used in auditing, and how do you interpret them to assess a company's financial health?
There you have it! Using the prompts, I got 5 behavioral and 5 technical questions I can practice for the actual interview.
Of course, this isn’t exclusive to Pi. You could test these same prompts with ChatGPT and compare the results!
My advice to you:
Give Pi a try using the prompts above and role-play the interview in 2 ways:
Type out your responses and ask the AI to rate your answer.
(Recommended): Download the mobile app of Pi to take advantage of its voice feature and have an actual conversation!
