Anyone working @customcomputerspecialists. ?
I recently switched to a Customer Engineering role but now thinking about switching to SRE or Site Reliability Engineering. My ultimate goal is to be more close to the product or code. SWE will be the ideal choice but need time to prep for the interviews.
Any SRE’s here that can share their thoughts? From my research they do %50 ops / %50 project work Microsoft Google Amazon

Spend more time solving case like problems at Uber. That way when you get to the car study - you will know when, where, why and how you need to modify your approach to the case study bawd on your real world experience
As someone else above mentioned, always ask for feedback. That’s the best way for you to find actionable improvements in your delivery. It’s helped me a lot in the past.
The case study portion tripped me up in a couple of role interviews and my feedback was largely the same every time. I researched and presented everything well, but they wanted to also see a more low level, literal plan of how I would execute in the role (“during the first month, I will..”). So I’ve focused on becoming more detailed & literal going forward -it’s worked so far lol
Ultimately, getting feedback from the team who interviewed you is your best bet to find the weak spot in your pitch
You can get a career coach to practice with that specializes in case studies!

I'm not sure it'd motivate you enough but this guy seriously changed my perception
This is great - thanks for sharing!
It could be a psych / energy thing. How do you ground yourself before the case study?
I believe preplounge has some practice guides that are specific to preparing for case studies. Might want to check them out.
I second asking for feedback. If the company won't give you feedback, reach out to any contacts you have that are recruiters, managers in this area and ask them to give you their critique. Also, don't assume this is necessarily something you did wrong. It could just be they weren't ready to hire or really did have several good candidates.
Do you mind giving us a sample case study here? Maybe we can all contribute by giving recommendations
Oh boy, so many to pick from. There’s two that come to mind, where I thought I did really well.
One was internally at Uber and one was with Affirm.
For Uber, I had to pretend that I was going to be launching Uber Eats in Jackson Hole, WY. They are going to be new to Uber Eats but have Uber. How would I go about launching them and how would I take into consideration the existing platform of drivers from Rides?

I had done research on the ski resorts, busy times, tapping in to local celebrities for marketing campaigns, managing three sided marketplace (selection with restaurants, courier supply, and customer satisfaction through timely delivery). I provided a project plan on the steps to take prior to launch and then what additional recommendations I had to tap into the existing Uber rides base of both couriers and customers (offer more incentives to drivers but need to focus on net new couriers)
