There are many things which keep us developers shrieking and hiding behind oak doors. Be it Bugs, Incidents, KPIs, Javascript, YAFF (Yet another Frontend Framework), Game of Thrones spoilers — the mention of these is enough to send cold chills down our spines. But nothing compares to the agony of going through tedious and lengthy procedures to crack a job interview.

I will try to generalise the process, give some tips on how to handle different areas (more focussed on the tech aspect of course). Before we begin, please note that in no way what I speak about in this article can be considered a good way to crack an interview or is applicable to all jobs in Germany. These are simply ramblings of a mere software developer, observing his ecosystem in the last 9 years, and I have not really conducted a thorough research on this.
