Mock interview with Brittany and Robbie:

What happened in the interview/practice?

  • I found that I got a bit flustered due to the fact that I had practiced beforhand and was searching for the same words that i had practiced. In the future I feel I should have a rough outline.

What are some best practices of technical interviews that you've discussed?

  • Keep the whiteboard code brief. No need to write it all out as long as you describe what you are doing
  • dont be afraid to ask questions
  • make sure to anwer questions fully and to the best of your knowledge
  • admit when you dont know but illustrate what you do

Challenge 1

Floating the divs put them out of order so I created a container for divs 2 and 3 to preserve their order and floated the container to the right. Challenge 1

Challenge 2

Div 1 remains static as the positioning was set correctly. Div 2 margin set to auto to center. Div 3 position set to absolute with a right margin of 0. Challenge 2

Challenge 3

Div 2 set inside of div 1. Div 1 margin set to auto to center. Div 2 position set to absolute, margin set to auto and margin-top set to 25px to center.
