I’m a great dev but I literally turn into a vegetable during technical interviews. I need help at this point.
To people who have graduated and gotten internships and jobs, would you still major in CS, or is the risk of AI and offshoring too great, even with your current success?
Is it cheating to have notes on my screen during a video interview?
Honesty
Honestly cannot believe this just happened...
I accidentally came across my senior engineer on an online video game, now he’s being distant at work.
Honestly it’s all thanks to you folks, I finally got an offer!!!

Interview Experience
Honestly, I’m at my breaking point. I’ve been a dev for 4 years, I crush my tickets at work, and my manager loves me. But as soon as I jump on a Zoom call for an interview, my brain just stops functioning. I had a technical round yesterday for a Senior role and it was so embarrassing. I knew the answer to the LeetCode medium, but I just couldn't explain my thought process. I was stuttering, my palms were sweating, and I totally forgot how a basic hash map works for like two minutes. I felt the interviewer’s interest go from a yes to a big no in real time. Does anyone else deal with this? How do you stop such "interview blackout" from happening? I feel like I’m going to be stuck at my current job forever.
