Tell me about negotiating schedule and boundaries in a job interview setting. Do you ask about hours? I’m terrified of losing an opportunity by revealing my mom status but I want to avoid a bad fit.

I negotiated for it once I got an offer. I asked questions about work/life balance and general hours in the interview

I said I needed to leave every day by a particular time so I could get my kids from school once they gave me an offer. I, of course, also noted that I would get back online at night once the kids were in bed or come in early in the morning (since my kids are up and out the door by 7am anyways). Key is waiting until you have the offer in hand.

Early on: tell me about a day in the life of this role. After an offer: I need XYZ (specific start or leave time, wfh days, whatever).

Folks who conduct interviews at FAANG level companies (behavioral and technical): what is it that you are “actually” looking for in candidates? I realize there are standards you’re making sure folks live up to, but is there ever a role that “gut feeling” plays in people you accept or reject?

I have a in person(online, 4 hours - 4 people) technical interview coming up and I have been practicing my coding for the past 3 weeks. The only thought I've been having is "what if I can't solve the coding question?" I am still fairly new to the software engineer scene and the position is for a level 1 software engineer.
Does it essentially end my chances if at any point I can't solve the question? I mean I will definitely attempt to talk it through, ask question, but no progress in code. 🤷

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)
