# Tweets From Wes Kao ![rw-book-cover](https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1743843672582504448/QYyNqLs__x96.jpg) ## Metadata - Author: [[@wes_kao on Twitter]] - Full Title: Tweets From Wes Kao - Category: #tweets - URL: https://twitter.com/wes_kao ## Highlights - If you're a candidate interviewing for a role, avoid *backstory scope creep.* I regularly see folks spend too much time on the "situation" part of the STAR method (situation, task, action, results). The situation is the least interesting part of your story. If you spend too much time on the situation, you run out of time to share what you actually did and what the results were. Remember to allocate your time appropriately. Start right before you get eaten by the bear.<img src='https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GD5KfXOXkAAtSkr.jpg'/> ([View Tweet](https://twitter.com/wes_kao/status/1746915983875297754))
