Engineering Managers donโt hire in a vacuum. When they evaluate a candidate, a big part of what they are looking for is how well they have demonstrated their experience collaborating on a technical challenge with other developers.
In this session, Ben will dive into the specific collaboration skills he looks for in a candidate and the best ways to demonstrate those skills on an application or in an interview.
Top takeaways include:
In interviews talk about the different interactions you've had with other devs, such as in standups, PR reviews etc.
Screenshot a few PRs and put it in a deck if it's a private repo if that's your main course of collaboration, you can cross out any private info
Building a project with real-world constraints is a great way to showcase collaboration with not only engineers but other people like CEOs and Designers
If you only have projects from bootcamp, look to open source projects to continue skills building while building technical collaboration skills
