Problem Solving
How do you solve a complex problem?
Teamwork
How do you work with others?

GIMME THE WORKBOOK!Frequently Asked Questions
How many hours should I schedule each day to maximize results?
Ace Your Tech Interview is a self-paced workbook, so you can invest as many or as few hours each day as your schedule allows. A good rule of thumb would be 1-2 hours per day while following the 6-day roadmap included in the workbook.
I’m a beginner. Is this helpful even for students?
Ace Your Tech Interview is for tech and engineering professionals, AS WELL AS students, who want to land their dream job. Since beginners have less technical knowledge, companies are focused on learning about your soft skills, like being curious, a quick learner and a good problem solver. Effectively communicating stories to demonstrate these qualities (and more) is crucial during an interview.
