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

What did you excel at in the practice?

  • I felt comfortable and was able to think on my toes
  • I like to keep things light and make sure others are comfortable

What will you continue to practice as you prep for interviews in the future?

  • being calm
  • fundimental interview questions

What surprised you about the practice?

  • I was nervous
  • It was easy to be pulled out of the flow of coding by questions. I need to work on an easier transition
