The Interview Prep AI Stack: 4 Tools, 6 Steps, Every Prompt Included
Most people prep for an interview inside one chatbot tab and call it done. That is leaving reps on the table. Every stage has one tool that is flat-out better at it than the rest: practicing out loud, digging into the company, predicting the questions, negotiating the number, following up. This is the full stack I send people, with the exact prompt for every step. Run it top to bottom.
The stack at a glance
Four tools, six steps, in the order you will actually use them. Save the list, then run the prompts below.
Practice out loud: ChatGPT voice mode, it will grill you
Company research: Perplexity, last 90 days of news
Likely questions: Claude, paste the full JD
Filler words: Supernormal, record yourself, read the transcript
Salary counter: Claude, give it the offer and your number
Follow-up email: ChatGPT, three lines, sent within the hour1. ChatGPT voice mode: the mock interviewer that pushes back
Typing practice answers is not practice. You need to say them out loud and get challenged in real time. Open voice mode, fill in the role and company, and let it work you for 20 minutes. The push-back instruction is the whole point of this prompt. Do not soften it.
You're a hiring manager for [role] at [company]. Conduct a 20-min behavioral interview. Push back on weak answers.2. Perplexity: the last 90 days of company news
Generic company research is what every other candidate did the night before. You want recency: funding, leadership changes, product launches. Reference something from the last quarter in your answers and you sound like the one candidate who actually pays attention.
Last 90 days of news for [company]: funding, leadership changes, product launches3. Claude: reverse-engineer the job description
The job description tells you what they will ask, if you read it like an interviewer instead of a candidate. Paste the full JD into Claude, run the prompt, then prep the top 10 in order. You just covered most of the interview before it happened.

Record your practice answers and read the transcript back. You cannot hear your own um and like in the moment, but in writing they are impossible to ignore. Search the transcript for each word below and cut the worst offenders before the interviewer starts counting them. To be clear, you are recording yourself practicing alone, nobody else.
um, uh, like, you know, kind of, basically, I mean5. Claude: the salary negotiation script
Do not improvise the money conversation. Give Claude the offer and your target number, get the counter script, then rehearse it the same way you rehearsed the interview: out loud, until it sounds like you.
Here is my offer: [paste the full offer]. My target is [number]. Write my counter script word for word, including what I say if they hold firm.6. ChatGPT: the follow-up email
Three lines, sent within 60 minutes of leaving the call. ChatGPT drafts it, you cut anything that sounds like a template, you hit send. Short and fast beats long and tomorrow, every single time.
Write a 3-line follow-up email for my [role] interview at [company]. Mention [one specific thing we discussed]. Direct, warm, zero fluff.Get the next one first
