Asri Cohen is a self-taught coder with extensive experience in various programming languages, frameworks, and technologies. He has held leadership positions at startups and founded his own development company. This episode will leverage his experience as a recruiter, entrepreneur, and developer to offer job seekers valuable insights on navigating the hiring process. Asri will share tips on what to consider during your job search and how to strategically craft your approach to land the perfect opportunity.This episode pulls back the curtain on the tech hiring process, offering a dose of real talk for both candidates and recruiters.
Candidates will learn:
Full-stack mentality is key: Modern developers need to be involved in the entire development cycle, from understanding requirements to deployment. Learning is a constant: The tech industry is fast-paced, so showcasing a willingness and ability to learn new things is essential. Be honest (and proactive): Don't be afraid to acknowledge skill gaps in interviews. Instead, demonstrate your initiative to learn by mentioning courses or resources you'll use to close the gap. Tailor your approach: Recognize that different company cultures require different interview tactics. Startups seek creativity and enthusiasm, while large corporations might prioritize deep expertise. Quality over quantity: Consider focusing on a few well-developed projects on your portfolio instead of a long list of technologies you've barely touched.
Be a generalist with depth: Focus on a broad range of skills, but become an expert in at least a few areas. Showcase your abilities with real projects, not just a laundry list of technologies. Tailor your approach: Adapt your interview style to the company culture. Enthusiasm and creativity are valued at startups, while Fortune 500 companies might seek deep expertise in a specific technology. Honesty is appreciated: Don't be afraid to acknowledge skill gaps in interviews. Instead, demonstrate your initiative to learn by mentioning courses or resources you'll use to close the gap. Follow up strategically: After an interview, follow up to showcase your eagerness and initiative. You can mention that you're enrolling in a course to address a specific weakness you identified.
Recruiters will learn:
Technical expertise isn't everything: Look beyond specific technologies and assess a candidate's problem-solving skills, communication, and cultural fit. Involve engineers in the interview process: Engineers can assess a candidate's technical abilities and compatibility with the team. Beware of bad resumes: Resumes with extensive keyword lists might bypass HR but may not reflect real abilities. Readability matters: Pay attention to how easy it is to scan a resume. Highlight relevant skills within the first 15 seconds to avoid getting passed over. There are more bad companies than good ones: Encourage candidates to research companies before applying.
This episode equips you to answer the "strengths question" with confidence during your job interview.
Why interviewers ask: They assess self-awareness, alignment with the role, and communication skills.
The "mirror effect": Knowing your strengths helps you discuss weaknesses constructively.
3 Strengths to Highlight:
Aligned with the job description (e.g., detail-oriented for accounting)
From your previous job (e.g., leadership recognized by a past boss)
Personal strength applicable to work (e.g., perseverance)
Bonus Strength: Align with the company culture (e.g., volunteer for a cause they support).
Common Mistakes to Avoid: ArroganceGeneric responses ("hard worker") Weak examples Disguised weaknesses ("perfectionist") Bragging or lack of confidence Irrelevant strengths (high school sports stats)

How to Win the Internal Interview (Without Making Rookie Mistakes)

00:10:37
Internal interviews. What the right approach and perspective is, how to position yourself, your advantages and disadvantages as a current employee, and more.
• Traditional interview answers focusing on yourself (commute, company culture) are ineffective. • Companies hire to solve problems and achieve outcomes. • Craft interview answers that showcase your skills and how they benefit the company. • Use the job description to understand the company's needs and tailor your answer accordingly. • Quantify your achievements with past experiences to demonstrate impact. • Focus on being a solution provider, not just someone filling a job title. • This approach can be used in cover letters and interview responses, even if the specific question isn't about why you applied. • If you can't connect your skills to the company's needs, it might not be the best job for you.
