I’ve been through a few interviews working on revisiting/retouching basic fundamentals including programming languages, algorithms, data structures, object-oriented programming, etc. This to me is equally, if not more important, than attempting to place one’s focus on learning many new things. It’s best to lend your time to things that will help in the long -run. (A bit pretentious but first principles is a good way to map your daily decisions)
If I’m fortunate enough my work will help me land an internship this summer. If not, I still consider myself fortunate because of how enjoyable I make it for myself. Teaching yourself is a lot more enjoyable when you cater to your needs and interests.
Side Note: my blog posts will be short and brief at times for time management purposes.
