Today, I attended the seminar on interview prep. I learned that there are various factors that go into preparing for interviews. Therefore, I believe it is crucial to remember that if an interview doesn’t go well or if you face rejection after an interview to not get down on yourself as you put your best effort into preparing. Especially with technical interviews, many of the questions are arbitrary and they do not determine your worth and value, and it is very important that you realize that there was only so much you could prepare for. Thus, the best kind of prep for an interview should be recognizing your worth and that you are putting your best effort.
I definitely agree with you! I think there are so many factors that go into a hiring decision that you cannot necessarily control! As long as you’ve tried your best and did your research on the company / position, that’s all you can really do!
I agree with you wholeheartedly. Showing that you put in the effort and that you are passionate about the company is the best you can do. Companies can ask the most absurd questions at times that can throw us off. It is more important that you should be proud of yourself for trying and thinking of this as continuous practice!
