Understanding the Needs

First things first: securing the interview. A thorough understanding of the job description is crucial.

Leveraging Crowdsourced Knowledge

Many companies provide interview preparation material, including sample questions from coding websites. These questions are goldmines! Compiled by a diverse pool of developers, they offer valuable insights into the types of challenges you might encounter.

Investing in Your Success

While the interview landscape may seem unfamiliar to those returning to the job market, investing in interview preparation resources is well worth it. Think of it as an investment in your career advancement, similar to how you might have purchased books in the past.
