How to Prepare for a Technical Interview

Interviewing for a new job can be a stressful proposition. A group of volunteers from Amazon Web Services (AWS) created this training to demystify the interview process. This is tailored to job seekers seeking employment in tech. In this virtual seminar, we will review good and bad interviewing practices we’ve witnessed through our careers and present helpful tips to prepare for technical interviews. We will also give you resources you need to practice for your next interview. During this session, we will:

  • Prepare you for the interview

  • Set expectations for the day of the interview

  • Walk through a mock interview

  • Provide approaches to navigating a coding test

  • Share great information resources.

 Due to the level of interaction required, attendance will be capped at 50.
