Your Talk

Title: Level up Your Team with Better Technical Interviews

What your talk is about: Have you ever been in a technical interview, stuck at a whiteboard or solving a brainteaser, and thought “there must be a better way”? Good news: there very much is. Agility and adaptability are crucial for a development team’s success, but how often do we target for agility when considering who to bring into our team? And how do we set expectations for agility from the first time this potential new hire begins evaluating our team? In this talk, I walk through my philosophy & provide practical tips for running technical interviews that are primed for success.

How long will your talk be?

Hi there — thanks for submitting this talk! It’s been a year since the last activity — would you mind taking a look to see if you’re still interested in presenting about this topic, and if the talk’s content is still up-to-date?

If everything’s still good, just drop a comment here and I’ll pop back into hibernation like a good little robot.

If you’re no longer interested in giving this talk, or the talk is out-of-date, feel free to close this issue.

Should I not hear back in a week, I’ll close this issue so you needn’t feel guilty about it. ❤️

Thanks for your contribution to the tech community in DC!
