Guys what’s the best advice to practice interviews? I suck at them and I want to master them by the time I get one for a summer internship (hopefully ~oct/nov) tios, timeline, websites… anything!
Thanks :)

I know this doesn’t really help you in the short term, but ultimately the best interview practice is to actually interview as much as possible. I would apply for anything and everything, even if it wasn’t a position of interest to me, just to get valuable interview experience.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
