    So... First, interview at Netflix, and then, when you feel comfortable - at the place where you&apos;d actually like to work.

    Just got into amazon as a manager (non coding). In the 3rd interview, the hiring manager said &quot;Oh it&apos;s your 3rd interview, I&apos;ll go easy on ya&quot; and then proceeded to ask me the absolute most difficult and nuanced questions imaginable. It was pretty intense but at the end he said &quot;good job&quot; lol. Got the offer yesterday.

    Thanks for reminding me that I’m not risking my life. It’s not like failing a coding interview means you’re gonna get shot in the head by the recruiter.

    I relate to this so badly.<br><br>I forgot how to map over a list of items in JSX. Literally blacked out and forgot how to write a ternary. It got so bad that I began laughing and muttering about how much I hate interviews. Top 3 most embarrassing moments of my life.

    It&apos;s so hard to even get an interview in the first place. I&apos;ve applied to several roles at netflix, amazon, google, meta, and about 800 other listings on every site I can find. No interviews, despite having a substantial portfolio and a good resume.

    I&apos;ve LARPed as a team lead for years and interviewed dozens of people. Some of them are super freaked out in these situations. I had two guys who basically forgot how to speak, even though it was clear to me for other reasons that they are intelligent and competent.<br><br>I&apos;m one of those people.<br>In &quot;exam&quot; situations I almost always brain freeze and hyperventillate, so I need to stop talking for 5-10 seconds and focus on breathing. Even though I&apos;m a cool, accomplished, brave, hypercompetent, manly man, I just shut down during interviews. So it is really difficult for me to sell myself.<br>Nowhere else in life or during work this happens. If I need to talk to a gajillion dollar contract Customer and explain to them why their gajillion dollar service is down, I&apos;m completely fine and on top of everything.<br><br>As an interviewer I always try to reduce interview jitters in creative ways.
