#

Wat mine was 4

rare prairie
#

hmm

#

what was ur first & second?

#

(this is for tech right?)

uncut radish
#

mine was 4

rare prairie
#

huh

#

my first part was parsing two 2d array, second was extending the parsing, and 3rd was calculations

#

unless you're counting each 2d array as one part

uncut radish
#

parsing -> member function -> calculation -> extension

#

my interviewer gave it to me in 4 separate questions

rare prairie
#

interesting i didn't have an extension

untold yarrow
#

Yeah I had the extension but didn’t have enough time to code so had to explain my thought process

cosmic lily
#

i also had 4 separate parts pretty much like how he outlined it

#

the interviewer i had was super quiet ngl tho i would explain my thought process and he’s respond with “…”

uncut radish
#

me n my interviewer were laughing while i was coding

#

i did finish all parts

rare prairie
#

uncut radish
#

#

im more worried about behavioral tbh

#

how deep do they dig in with behavioral answers?

#

Im afraid that my answers won't have enough scope

rare prairie
#

usually like 1-2 follow ups

#

3 questions

prime mulch
#

oh word

#

that sounds light

rare prairie
#

just lie lol

prime mulch
#

did it take up the whole hour?

rare prairie
#

if it doesn't have enough depth

#

nah

#

my interviewer and I kinda vibed so we talked a bit more

prime mulch
#

I guess I could come up with something

#

hmm 1-2 follow ups dont sound that bad

#

maybe I should lie

#

how are you feeling for all rounds?

prime mulch
#

I feel like I’m chilling for coding

#

Case uh idk

#

Idk why but I usually fail recruiter screen

#

😂😂

#

I’m not good at yapping

sonic crescent
#

i think my worst will be coding bc idk how in depth im supposed to be studying for it lol, im just reviewing OOP and arrays/2d arrays/dictionaries mostly

sonic crescent
prime mulch
#

Everyone saying it’s easy so I think it’s fine

sonic crescent
#

nooo just get your STAR stories down and youll be fine

prime mulch
#

I’m more worried about follow ups 😂

#

Because I didn’t do much at my internships

#

Like if I make up a story it’s going to be bad if they ask for specific details

#

Not sure how good my story should be

#

I kinda have answers to status quo but not sure if it’s on the level they’re expecting

sonic crescent
#

you can use basic stories, i don't think theyll expect something insane. ive passed behaviorals before i had my first internship xp using stories from when i worked at starbucks lol

prime mulch
#

Bettt

sonic crescent
#

you got it, ill let you know after my power day on monday what to watch out for
