Source: Common pattern across 2026 interview reports

Three parts: Specific interest in this company/team (product, tech direction, something you used or read), your career plan (what you want to build in the next 2-3 years), and how the two fit together.

Red lines: Do not badmouth your current company or team. Do not lead with money or level. Frame leaving as what you are moving toward, not what you are running from.

Specificity is the only persuasion: Your recommendation system is large-scale is generic. We reproduced your sequence modeling paper in our team last year is real interest.
