I’m in the middle of sending out applications and considering all the things I should refresh on. Does anyone have some good resources or practices they run through to get refreshed or otherwise prepared for technical and skill/personal interviews?
Ex. Sites, blogs, yt videos to refresh on data structures and algorithms. Checklist of things to look for when researching companies. Questions to ask recruiters during an interview. etc.
I take what they’re saying as “don’t just give up/refuse to answer” - it’s fine to say “I don’t know, but I have a guess on how I’d start/find out” and try to work through that. In a real working environment, this is more how it’d work, and if someone truly didn’t know where to start, usually the co-worker would try to help, which is not always how interviews go.
