What to Upload

  • Company Research: Information about the company, culture, products, or recent news
  • Technical Specs: Technical documentation, architecture diagrams, or technology overviews
  • Portfolio Summaries: Project summaries, case studies, or work samples relevant to the role
  • Industry Reports: Market research, trends, or industry-specific knowledge
  • Product Documentation: Product guides, user manuals, or feature specifications you should know
  • Study Materials: Interview prep notes, coding patterns, or domain-specific guides

Organize with Folders

Folders let you group related documents — for example, by role, company, or interview type — so you can keep your Knowledge Base tidy and load only the relevant context into each Copilot session.
Knowledge Base folders sidebar
1

Create a folder

In the Knowledge Base sidebar, click + New folder and give it a name (e.g., sde, data, consulting).
2

Add documents to a folder

Open the action menu on any document, choose Add to folder, and pick the destination folder.
3

Filter by folder

Click any folder in the sidebar to view only its documents. Use All documents to see everything, or Enabled files to see only what’s active.
Adding a document to a folder
At launch time, you can scope a Copilot session to a single folder instead of your entire Knowledge Base — useful when you’ve prepared role-specific notes you don’t want bleeding into other interviews.

Create from Scratch

If you do not want to upload a file, you can create a document directly inside Knowledge Base. This is the right option for interview stories, prepared answers, project summaries, and other context you want Copilot to use.
Knowledge Base Create from Scratch Interface
1

Open Knowledge Base

Go to the Knowledge Base and choose the option to create a document from scratch.
2

Start a new document

Click to create a new document instead of uploading an existing file.
3

Choose your input style

Pick either the STAR format or a free-form message, depending on how structured you want the content to be.
4

Save the document

Add a title, fill in your content, and save it so the document becomes part of your Copilot response context.

When to Create from Scratch

  • Behavioral stories: STAR examples for leadership, conflict, delivery, or ownership
  • Prepared answers: Common interview prompts you want to answer consistently
  • Project summaries: Highlights you want Copilot to reference without uploading a separate file
  • Role-specific talking points: Domain knowledge, priorities, or examples tailored to one interview

Example STAR Entry

Situation: Our e-commerce platform was experiencing slow checkout times, causing a 15% cart abandonment rate.Task: As the lead developer, I needed to optimize the checkout flow while maintaining all security and payment integrations.Action: I conducted performance profiling, identified database query bottlenecks, implemented Redis caching for session data, and optimized the payment gateway API calls. I also worked with the UX team to streamline the user interface.Result: Reduced checkout time from 45 seconds to 12 seconds, decreasing cart abandonment by 60% and increasing completed purchases by 25% over three months. The solution handled 3x the original traffic capacity.

Input Styles

The STAR method gives both the AI and your interviewer a clean structure to follow:
  • Situation: Set the context and background
  • Task: Describe the challenge or goal
  • Action: Explain what you specifically did
  • Result: Share the outcome and impact

Free-Form Message

You can also write your document in a natural, conversational style. The AI will extract key points and integrate them appropriately during the interview.
