Post-Interview Reflections If you don’t know the answer to a question, it’s better to politely admit it and move on rather than trying to guess or over-explain. Avoid irritating or interrupting the interviewer; stay calm and respectful throughout the discussion. Rate your performance realistically — honest self-evaluation helps identify areas for improvement and future preparation.
