PDXWIT & AWS Present: 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, aws.amazon.com) created this training to demystify the interview process. This is tailored to job seekers seeking employment in tech. In this virtual seminar, they’ll cover good and bad interviewing practices they’ve witnessed through their careers. They’ll also present helpful tips and resources to prepare for your next technical interviews.

During this webinar, 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 resources
