One sheet, two columns, one print button. It covers the four things worth writing down before any interview: what you know about the company, how you're getting there, the questions you'll ask, and four stories told the STAR way. The STAR structure (Situation, Task, Action, Result) is a long-standing public framework; this page adds nothing proprietary to it, just somewhere to write. Fill the sheet the day before, not in the lobby.

Print it and write by hand, or fill the boxes on screen before printing. Either works; the point is that the answers exist somewhere other than your head before you walk in.
The day before
When
What
Morning
Reread the job post, ten minutes. Mark the two requirements you'll lead with; they go in box 3 of the research column.
Midday
Pick your four STAR stories and say each one out loud, once. Story slots don't need polish yet, just existence.
Afternoon
Print resume copies and this sheet. Pack the bag against the logistics column, route and dress included.
Evening
Confirm the logistics one more time, then set two alarms.
Night
Cut prep off at a set hour. In my opinion, cramming past that point trades sleep for answers you already wrote down.
Four tips, from doing this the hard way
Rehearse out loud. A silent run-through hides every rough sentence. Your ears catch what your eyes skim, and one spoken pass fixes most of it.
Bring paper even to video calls. Connections drop. A printed resume and this sheet on the desk mean a dead call costs you thirty seconds, not the conversation.
Write your questions down before the day. "Any questions for us?" tends to arrive forty minutes in, when your head holds answers instead of questions. The five lines in the sheet exist for that exact moment.
Two minutes per story. Situation in two sentences, the rest on what you did, then stop. Practice the cut, because long stories lose the room before the result lands.
Skip saying these three
Money as the first question. A fair topic at the wrong moment. When comp comes up varies by process; letting them raise it, or parking it until they want you, keeps the early conversation on the work.
Trash-talking your current employer. The person across the table assumes you'll describe them the same way someday. Say what you're moving toward instead of what you're fleeing.
Winging an example you don't have. "Let me think of one, I don't have it ready" beats a made-up story, because made-up stories attract follow-up questions and fall apart there.
A prep sheet only matters if interviews keep landing on the calendar. The Web3 Remote Jobs & Hiring Database 2026 lists 147 crypto companies hiring remote, each careers URL HTTP-checked on 2026-09-05, with remote policy and open-role counts per row and a source_checked column so you can re-verify any row yourself. For the stage before interviews, the printable job application tracker logs your applications; for the stage after, the interview follow-up template covers the thank-you email.
