= First Coding Interview

Context

Prepped for js/front-end/leetcode, did not get any of those lmao
- Just asked basic conceptual questions, and I think my questions were okay? Could have definitely been more in-depth, but it was my first interview and I think I did well for it
General questions
“How would you describe the color blue to a blind person”
- Mental roadblock that prevented me from thinking creatively, having an example to further describe could have helped
“Greatest weakness”
- Asked for time but didn’t even come up with a complete answer, don’t push myself and genuinely think next time
Hackathons helped provide a lot of talking content, and I’m glad I prepped a bit
- Having to lead project and do front-end, forgot to emphasize the leading part though but i don’t think that’s necessary for this one specifically

Did I learn anything?

I need to brush up on behavioral xd
- Have solid answers for the super generic
Questions asked
- weakness, elaborated on strengths,
Should I have been taking notes as I listened to him? idk
Establish rapport prior to being asked?
Think of more relevant strengths based on their values, not just individual
- literally forgot to include the one thing that is most pivotal somehow
  - what would it be labelled under?
    - Life Purpose ?
include parents perspective for cardboard story

Good
