74: Technical Interviews: Preparing For, What to Expect, and Tips for Success - Derrick Mar

In this episode, I talk with Derrick Mar, CTO and co-founder of Pathrise.
This is the episode you need to listen to to get ready for software interviews.

• We discuss four aspects of technical interviews that interviewers are looking for:

  • communication
  • problem solving
  • coding
  • verification

• How to practice for the interview.

• Techniques for synchronizing with interviewer and asking for hints.

• Even how to ask the recruiter or hiring manager how to prepare for the interview.

If you or anyone you know has a software interview coming up, this episode will help you both feel more comfortable about the interview before you show up, and give you concrete tips on how to do better during the interview.

Special Guest: Derrick Mar.
