#145 - Mastering the Technical Interview: Lessons from My Worst Interview and Beyond
Manage episode 424090719 series 3399111
Let me tell you about the WORST interview I've ever had when I made it on site at Google back in 2019. My worst fear came true in this interview with the single worst interviewer I've ever had. It also exposed some serious knowledge gaps that led me to finally learn how to conquer tech interviews, increase my confidence and my boost my salary.
This is NOT a lesson on how to beat Google's interview process. We go over the interviews that 99% of developers will encounter after graduating a bootcamp and a way to beat them.
Here's a document I've been using and sharing with mentees for a while now that should help you prepare for the behavioral interview.
Check it out here!
