Complete the Interviewing module.
Review week 6 of the demo projects: Event List Week 6 | Expense Tracker Week 6.
Before the instructor begins their lesson, take time to have your standup meeting. Go around the group and talk about the user stories you completed this previous week, and the user stories you will work on this coming week.
In class today we will see a presentation by the instructor. They will be sharing their experiences with interviewing for technical roles. We will also go over how to answer questions effectively, and how to prepare for an interview.
For our activity today, you will be paired with another student. You will take turns asking each other example interview questions and giving each other constructive feedback.
There will probably be some time at the end of class today for you to work on your project. If you are stuck on something, or need help from a mentor, don’t hesitate to use this time to get unstuck on your project.
There is no assignment this week. Continue working on your project, and be prepared for the Mock Interview assignment next week.
