ama's Issues

What was the "interview gauntlet" at Microsoft like?

First of all, if you prefer a different contact format or just don't have time to answer, feel free to close this issue. I initially thought of sending you an email or Twitter DM, but since this repo was still open I figured I would give it a shot.

In a recent comment on your Dev.to AMA, you mentioned that at first you cancelled the on-site interview because the idea of going through an "interview gauntlet" stressed you out. Can you describe what that interview process was like?

I have been making software at an animation studio for about 5 years now and I'm really proud of the tools that I've built, but the lack of resources and support are pushing me to consider applying to a software company. My degree is in Electrical Engineering, not CompSci, so the gaps in my knowledge are giving me anxiety.

I've been following you on Twitter for a few years now and I decided to reach out directly because we're both Boricua women, so I figured your perspective would align more with my own.

Thanks and solidarity.

Effective Traits.

What qualities do you feel are especially necessary for those who are just starting out in web development (or careers in tech in general)?

And what qualities are especially useful for those who are involved in community management?

Don't you use a version manager?

On toolsday you said "I don't use a version manager myself". Would you explain it please? Partly because I'm not very well at understanding live english, but anyway it is surprising enough to be asked.
