Job interview teleprompter — answer with presence.
STAR answers, behavioural prompts, follow-up branches — all in the HeyNotch above your camera.
Remote interviews are camera tests. The candidate who reads notes loses to the candidate who looks present, even if both have the same content.
HeyNotch lets you have your STAR answers fully written — and still look directly at your interviewer the entire time. Branches handle their follow-up questions: 'tell me more about that team' / 'what would you do differently'.
Tell-me-about-yourself
Anchor → arc → why this role. Three branches for common follow-ups.
STAR template
Situation, Task, Action, Result — pre-formatted with branches for hindsight questions.
Questions for them
Three smart closers, one click away when they ask 'do you have questions for us?'
Salary negotiation
Pre-written response to 'what's your range?' that doesn't anchor low.
Outcomes you can expect
- 01Have STAR answers ready for every behavioural question
- 02Walk through your resume without losing the thread
- 03Ask great questions at the end without scrambling

## [Weakness?]
The thing I'm working on is {{weakness}}.Common questions
Can the interviewer tell?
Not if you look at the camera, which is exactly what HeyNotch makes you do. The notch sits directly above the lens.
What if they ask something I didn't script?
Hit Esc to dismiss the notch and answer freely. Or pre-script the 5 most likely 'curveball' questions and stay branched.
Will it slow down my responses?
No — you're reading at conversational speed. The prompter scrolls at 160 WPM by default, which matches natural speech.
