- LouisSayers 4y agoThe same as everyone else really... The trick is though to tailor your CV for the position you're applying for. I'll research everything I can about the company and the people interviewing me, I'll look up common interview questions for the technology they use and spend WAY more time on any coding exercises than what they suggest making sure that it's well structured, tested and easy to extend in the follow up in-person interview. If it's a tech I haven't used much of, I'll be honest about it and they'll generally be impressed that I know as much as I do even though I'm new to the tech.
