Interview Reflection (Fireside Chat w/ Ingrid and Jeff)

It was very refreshing to listen to Ingrid and Jeff talk about the interview process. In my experience, the mind can really run wild when thinking about jobs from the junior perspective. There is so much we don't know, yet we make all these assumptions about things like why a company hasn't responded to an email, what they are actually looking for, and so on. Hearing these two experienced developers talk about what really matters (including attitude and manners) was very grounding for my perspetive. I'm excited to move forward in my job search with these things in mind. Specifically, I'm going to worry less about appearing more technically competent than I am, and focus more on showing my natural love of learning and empathy for others.
