- Preparing for technical interviews involves more than just knowing technical details-it's about effectively communicating your experiences and problem-solving abilities. Stress can impact communication, leading to incomplete thoughts or inappropriate reactions. Prioritize sharing what you've built and how you tackled challenges. Focus on concrete questions like these:
1. What have you built?
2. What was your toughest technical challenge?
3. How did you solve it?
Avoid generic questions like "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" They don't reveal much about your skills. Prepare by creating notecards for each project, detailing objectives, tools used, failed attempts, and successful solutions. Be specific in conversations, starting with a punchline to engage the interviewer. Tell stories chronologically backwards, discussing insights and failed attempts. Don't assume what the interviewer knows or finds interesting-ask and adapt. Practice with others to refine your storytelling and engage interviewers effectively. Ultimately, captivating conversations about your experiences demonstrate your value as a developer.
