Mock Interviews
During Mod 6, your weekly assessments will be in the form of Mock Interviews.
Each interview will be 30 minutes long and consist of both technical and non-technical questions. Instead of receiving a score, you will be “offered a job” or “invited to re-apply” . Regardless of outcome, you will be provided with feedback for improving your interviewing skills!
Each week, we will be focusing on a particular PD theme, and we want to see you demonstrate that theme in your interview:
- Week 1: Asking Questions
- Week 2: Graceful Exit
- Week 3: STAR and Concrete Examples
- Week 4: Talking While Coding
- Week 5: Planning
In order to be “offered a job” you must demostrate the following:
- Strong technical knowledge - answer most of the technical questions correctly.
- Ability to exit tough questions - you must demostrate graceful exiting of any question that you don’t know the answer to.
- Ability to use examples to illustrate your answers - examples should be relevent and specific.
The questions for each week can be found HERE
