What is your job interview ritual? - eviltoast

I’m in the middle of sending out applications and considering all the things I should refresh on. Does anyone have some good resources or practices they run through to get refreshed or otherwise prepared for technical and skill/personal interviews?

Ex. Sites, blogs, yt videos to refresh on data structures and algorithms. Checklist of things to look for when researching companies. Questions to ask recruiters during an interview. etc.

    I usually skim the Gang of Four design patterns because that’s something people love to ask about despite it not necessarily being something folks need to memorize for work.

    I think the most important thing is to think of or look up interpersonal questions like “tell us about a time you got negative feedback” and have moments ready to talk about. If someone is asking me about HTTP verbs I know a lot off the top of my head but things like that I usually have to actively think about to remember.
