Rui created a setup exactly like the one I would expect during an actual interview. Discussed a bit in the beginning to identify my actual situation, and then chose the appropriate question, considering also the company I will be interviewing for. Her feedback was thorough, and she gave me pointers even for the little things, that could though make a difference. Overall I am really happy with our session, I think it has helped me a lot for my current preparation stage. Thanks Rui!
