PDXWIT x AWS: How to Prepare for a Technical Interview + Networking Mixer

Registration for this event is required to attend.

Interviewing for a new job can be a stressful proposition. A group of volunteers from Amazon Web Services (AWS, aws.amazon.com) created this training to demystify the tech interview process.

In this in-person seminar, they’ll cover good and bad interviewing practices they’ve witnessed through their careers. They’ll also present tips and resources to help you ace your next technical interview. 

During this session, they will:

  • Prepare you for the interview

  • Set expectations for the day of the interview

  • Role-play a mock interview

  • Provide approaches to navigating the coding test

  • Share information and resource

Following the event, join PDXWIT for a networking mixer with event host AWS! Meet with recruiters, build community and make new connections.  ASL interpretation will be available throughout the event. Contact hello@pdxwit.org if you have other accessibility needs.
