How to Improve Coding for Technical Interviews and Online Assessments

Image
In this blog post, I share some things I am learning after reflecting on my past experiences that can help myself and others to improve coding for technical interviews and online assessments. Coding for technical interviews and online assessments is different to coding for university or coding on the job. In a technical interview, you need to meet the bottom line while emphasising how you communicate your thought process in a way that is easy for the interviewer to understand. In an online coding assessment, there is no interviewer, so you are essentially communicating your idea to yourself while meeting the bottom line. Though, in some cases, you may have to discuss design decisions in the next stage of the hiring process.

Realizing My Destiny

I feel like everything is coming together, like I am reaching a convergence point in the ever-forming tapestry that is my life. I just shazamed a song while I was watching the closing scene of the last episode of the Netflix TV series called "The Recruit". The song was "Rabbit In Your Headlights" by UNKLE featuring Thom Yorke. It felt like the pinnacle of music.

A lot's happened but I will fill you in soon. While browsing the web I discovered more interesting people online that I will link to eventually in the relevant section on the website. I feel so blessed and favoured. My heart is filled with satis

New Ideas

Hi again! It's been a while but I'm back! I've suddenly had a rush of new ideas for how to present myself online and offline. It should be interesting to see the results! I can't wait. I started writing as soon as I had the chance though the ideas have been flowing since late morning till now, I still consideer myself on time ;) I am really excited and can't wait to share what I have in mind. My execution of the ideas should be much better this time round as I have a few things going for me this time; motivation, inspiration, determination, necessity, time and an urge to create immediately. I am also working on a way to embed this blog in a neater way on my website so it's easier for y'all to read it, nicer to look at and has all the bells and whistles. However, as always, I will be going for something simple and clean that works to start off with. I'm feeling very passionate right now and am channeling my inner creative, if you couldn't tell already
