Fucking bombed in an interview today @ Microsoft/Nvidia/Intel when describing how a SSL connection is established. I know this shit, but couldn’t articulate it because I was nervous. I was never so nervous in an interview. I believe the reason is that I really wanted the job. TC: 192k 15 YoE
Don't want it that bad. That's the best way to calm your nerves.
This!
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zzDObLBL0IY this is how you should approach interviews/negotiations.
I feel your pain. I couldn't do binary search of a list on a whiteboard under pressure at my first hedge fund interview two weeks ago. I've always wanted to work on a quant finance team and collapsed under the stress and now I'm pretty sure they think I'm the biggest moron this side of the Mississippi. It happens, you'll get em next time!
Damn deffie helman
What does yoe and tc mean? Sorry for the noob question
yoe = years of experience, tc = total compensation
Thanks! I keep seeing this everywhere!
Welcome bro
You may want to so some mock interviews before real interviews, that helps a lot. There are free platforms for that.
Happens. You can try and send a follow-up email explaining that you were nervous and showing evidence that you do definitely understand three-way-handshake. Couldn't hurt, especially if you did well on the other parts of the interview.
I’m waiting for the feedback. If it turns out bad, I’m definitely sending an email
Too late by then.
Why do they ask this? Specialized role?
Somewhat, but completely unrelated. I guess it’s the interviewer BS detector questions
if you had it in your resume that you worked on something related to ssl then it would look pretty bad.
I don’t get it you interviewed at MSFT nvidia and intel all at once and all three companies asked you about SSL?
Dude, just one of them
Op is smart, trying to anonymize the data 🤣
