🧶 Craft-n-Crush Your Coding Interview 🖥️ {BYO Craft Supplies}

✨ Join Women and Gender eXpansive Coders DC (WGXC DC) online as we craft-n-crush our coding interviews. We’ll be taking crafting breaks in between trying out coding interview problems.
Not sure what craft to bring? Any creative outlet counts, be it a coloring book from your favorite TV show, that scarf you’ve been knitting for 5 years, or poems on the back of your fast food receipt. No judgment.
Need to practice for a coding interview? ✍🏾 Any company that hires for technical roles (e.g. software engineers, data analysts) may use coding interviews. You may be sent a timed 30 minute quiz, or you may need to solve a problem in real-time with your interviewer on a video call.
Example coding interview question from LeetCode: Given an array of integers nums and an integer target, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to target.

How am I going to craft and code at the same time? We’ll be taking crafting breaks in between trying out coding interview problems. The format we’ll be trying out is:

✍🏾 Part A (~15 minutes): try to solve the given problem on your own
🧑‍💻 Part B (~15 minutes): watch the video solution together with other attendees, time to ask questions and review our approach
🧶 Part C (~15 minutes): crafting together, open conversation / networking / music
Repeat ✍🏾, 🧑‍💻, 🧶 until time’s up.

✅ Why you should attend:
Relax and reduce anxiety by practicing a creative hobby
Make new friends
Improve your coding interview skills
Build your network of technologists in the DMV area

Zoom link will be posted the day of the event!
