swe full stack?

#

how many people were in the kickoff?

#

i think my recruiter is capping when she said there are no roles đź’€

#

that’s also crazy bc people got their interview canceled because of “no open roles”

Kick off had like 90 people I think? But i got the impression that a lot were interviewing for internships.

I prepped by doing lots of tagged lc questions and coming up with stories for common behavioral questions. Practice your behavioral stories out loud. Also, look up CodePath’s UMPIRE method if you don’t already have a framework/tactic you use for technical interviews.

Also, I listened to several “positive affirmations for job interviews” type videos on YouTube. Sounds cheesy, but it did help me feel more confident and calm my nerves in the days right before the interview.

#

Good luck!
