A few suggestions:

  • Refresh on the fundamentals like how HTTP works, UX best practices, client-server interaction (if you're full stack), critical rendering path on the browser, etc.
  • Build a cool project that interests you. Interviewers love when devs geek out over tech
  • Interviewing and solving whiteboarding problems

Definitely doing this. I haven't done a white-boarding interview in a long time - so I'm brushing off the cobwebs. It's amazing all the fundamental principles you forget when you are working an actual job. Thanks for the advice!
