CSE undergraduates (only!) who plan on engaging in technical interviews over the next few months should sign up here for the Mock Technical Interview event to be held in the CSE advising offices the evening of Monday, October 30, 2017.
At this event, technical interviewers from several of our industry affiliates will engage in abbreviated (30 minute) one-on-one mock technical interviews with students. The coaches will provide feedback to the students during and after the interviews. All students should plan on bringing a copy of their resume to the interviews.
This event has extremely limited space. It is geared first and foremost toward CSE students who plan to earn their degree before Summer 2018, and secondly toward CSE students who plan to earn their degree before Autumn 2019. The sign-up deadline is midnight (11:59:59 pm) on Wednesday, October 25. Slots will be filled in order of expected graduation from the pool of students who sign up prior to the deadline.
Selected students will be given one interview and should choose from one, two or three of the session times listed on the linked form. The 45 minute sessions begin at 6 pm, 6:45 pm, and 7:30 pm.

CSE undergraduates (only!) who have little or no technical interview experience can now sign up here for the Beginning Technical Interview Coaching event to be held in the Atrium on Tuesday, October 31.
At this event, technical interviewers from several of our industry affiliates will meet with groups of 2- 5 students. The interviewers will describe their technical interview processes, give a few sample questions and coach on what they look for in answers. The sessions will include sample programming questions, logic questions and puzzles. Our experts will also provide examples of what they ask in actual technical interviews and how to successfully answer to land the job.
This event is especially geared towards new CSE students who have little or no technical interview experience. The goal is to provide a good idea of what students will face in a technical interview and what kind of preparation is necessary to do well in one.
Students should choose one of the two hour-long sessions from the linked form. One session begins at 3 pm and the other at 4 pm. Students will be selected in order of sign up. Please try to sign up by end of day Thursday, October 26.
