How to Approach Interviewing

Overview

Congratulations! You've landed an interview! This can be the most exciting stage of your quest, as well as the most daunting. It's a tangible sign of all the progress you've made – but it can also feel like a major hurdle. In this sprint, we'll show you how to nail the interview process from start to finish – from cold-emailing recruiters to writing the perfect post-interview thank-you note.  Most importantly, we'll talk about managing your own insecurities and self-doubt. Confidence is key to a successful job interview – and, luckily, it's well within your grasp.

Completing this sprint should take about 2 hours.
We've provided some suggestions for how to time yourself as you work through this material – and highly recommend you go through the steps as you move through the interview process, as opposed to all at once. This will be a handy reference as you interview.
