Most of my projects involved proprietary code and I don't do home projects since I feel utterly drained at the end of the day.

when is the interview?

do you have a point of contact?

#

i wonder if they'd accept you honestly explaining what you said rn and coming with a design doc / diagram of a project you've worked on, though if proprietary i guess you may have to say you're changing it or something

but not personally experienced with that situation

Interview is in less than 6 hours

#

They booked it in real short notice

#

how “proprietary” are your work projects in that maybe explaining the architecture and design is enough

#

I guess I can give a high level explanation

#

Especially since the one I am most proud of required deep knowledge of a low level aerospace protocol

#

yeah or unless if this is an explicit NDA i think you can def just geek out and explain all the complexities (without anything actually sensitive) and they’ll understand that obviously you can’t bring the literal code

Hopefully.

#

Two failed coding tasks and I'm already feeling super demotivated

#

Just hope I haven't ruined my career
