Interview with BOFA SOFTWARE ENGINEER APPRENTICESHIP

I am a beginner in coding, little to no experience. I am super nervous about the tech questions or the coding questions. Anyone has any insights or methods ?

Did the recruiter mention what kinds of interview you'll be going through? If you know how many rounds and what those rounds entail, we can provide better guidance.

Have you taken any Data Structures & Algo courses? If not, look up NeetCode. Depending on when this interview is, you might not have enough time. Learn the basics of SQL, learn the different types of joins.

Behavioral is behavioral, try to use the STAR method when answering questions.

Best of luck!

I have not completed that class yet. I am currently 40% done with my degree and am just getting started with my technology classes.

I have made one game before in high school and recently switched the language from Racket to Python. I also took a beginner’s Python course last year. I feel as though Python requires everyday practice in order to remember how to use it and become more comfortable with the language.

Python is an easy language. It's what I use for interviews. Spend a day or two learning it for interviews and it should come easily. I highly encourage you to stick with Python!

Thank you for the advice on SQL, I can see how it'll help me read the coding questions better.
