This is a draft post and will be completed soon. The thoughts on this post are my raw brain dump. Read all completed posts here.
-
Tell me about yourself —> Mention what you want them to hear or know about you; your learnings, accomplishments etc.
- Keep a list of accomplishments ready
- Important learnings, lessons learned
- Learnings relevant to tech stack, general team building
- Interviewer always looks for —> tech competency, most importantly learning + team fit —> longer vision
- Buzzwords —> domain driven design —> people will catch you on those terms —> BEM
- Key learning is not to stress and just tell what you have learned from your work experience
- Watch out for expressions from the other person —> if they compliment you on your answers
-
It’s totally ok to tell
- I don’t know
- I have used this but now I cannot recall and I might need to browse on the internet; plus one to ‘if I remember correctly’
-
Keep questions handy to the interviewer
- Also ask questions about what their accomplishments were, motivations to the other person
