In interviews, you'll be asked about how you approach working in projects, and being able to describe how you utilize agile processes is a great way to help you stand out as a junior developer candidate. This reflection is meant to help you develop this skill.

With that in mind, please answer the following questions in your own gist about your group project:

What have you learned about the use of agile vs. waterfall in software projects?

Professional Story Draft

Childhood

I've been interested in coding since my childhood. I was the first kid that had a PC in my small town. My PC was very old one with Norton OS and I had a chance to see how complex computers were. For a child, this process was like something magic and world-changing. My parents saw my interest in it and supported me in it, they bought a lot of books about programming such as how to create web page or how to build your own games. I spent a lot of time doing it, and it was really exciting to create your own Tetris or Space Battle. I am a person who is interested in different fields, and I was the same when I was young. When it came time to choose future professional path, it was very hard to make a decision on what I want to do in the future. And finally I chose to be a clinical psychologist, because psychiatry looks very interesting.

University and after

In University, I was really enjoying studying psychology, especially clinical psychology. I spent a lot of time

Better questions to ask a hiring manager:

Tell me about a time a team member changed your mind? This lets you know if the leader feels they are the only one who has the answers or if they are open to different opinions. You are going to learn how they prefer to receive information and what they value.

Tell me about someone you are proud of. This is going to let you know which behaviors and skills they value. You can also learn their attitude towards developing people and celebrating success along the way.

Do you fully disconnect during holidays and vacations? Does this leader believes in boundaries and having time off and space that is protected? Or is this someone that will be calling you on your holiday—and will that work for you?

Describe a recent success or win. They should be able to come up with something pretty quickly. If they can’t, that might indicate that they aren’t great about celebrating progress or recognizing people along the way to milestones. They don’t have to describ

Section II

What is one command that you'll incorporate into your daily workflow and why?

It should be rabase instead of merge. Because It allows to get some commits from base branch to working branch especially if they have been added after working branch was created and they can be important to next changes in working branch.

How does rebasing work compared to a merge workflow?

  • When you do rebase a feature branch onto master, you move the base of the feature branch to master branch’s ending point.
  • Merging takes the contents of the feature branch and integrates it with the master branch. As a result, only the master branch is changed. The feature branch history remains same.
  • Merging adds a new commit to your history.
  • Rebase allows to keep clear commits history.
