I say you are probably a little sadistic or masochistic or both if you do.</p> <p>It’s a mental and emotional roller-coaster and as mentioned in a previous post, its like taking finals non-stop for as long as you are going through the interview process. It drained my energy and kept me from feeling creative or feeling motivated to just code for fun. Its been so long since I posted code consistently on Github which makes me a little sad.</p> https://nyghtowl.com/posts/2013/08/oh-the-fun-youll-have-with-technical-interviews/ Sat, 17 Aug 2013 02:16:24 +0000 https://nyghtowl.com/posts/2013/08/oh-the-fun-youll-have-with-technical-interviews/ <p>Technical interviews are just tough. For the month and a half I went through them, I felt like I was constantly studying for and taking a final exam. We were trying to cram at least a semester’s if not a years worth of computer science concepts into our brains as well as practice how to solve problems with an audience in a handful of days.</p> <p><em>Initial Experience</em><br> I definitely felt fear at the white board the first several times I was there. I would go blank and forget everything I knew. I was lucky if I remembered my name. But trust me when I say that you will survive this and practice is the key.</p>
