Pool perk
Interview prep, written by someone who’s sat on the panel.
Pool members get prep packets specific to the companies they interview at. Not generic LeetCode advice. The rubric your interviewer is grading on, the behavioral signals that move the needle at this particular startup, and when in the loop to bring up comp without burning value.
Packet 1
System design rubrics
Real patterns we've seen at the venture-backed startups we place into. What they actually grade on, what they let slide, what kills a candidate in round one.
Packet 2
Behavioral patterns
The two or three behavioral signals each company prizes (ownership stories, conflict resolution, dealing with ambiguity). Specific to each company, not a generic framework.
Packet 3
When to ask comp
We tell you the exact stage in the loop where bringing comp up gets you more, gets you less, or burns the offer. Founders read it; we'll read it for you.
Packet 4
Reference handling
Who to put forward, who to skip, how to brief them. Most candidates lose 5-10% of their offer here without realizing.
How to access it
Drop a CV in the pool. The prep arrives when an interview does.
When you go to onsite via a roles.cc introduction, a packet for that exact company lands in your inbox the day the schedule is confirmed.
