這篇文章是作者分享關於 EM(Engineering Manager) 面試相關的討論文，作者先前已經分享過一系列關於 Engineering Manager 面試的一些經驗
有滿多網友表示之前系列文的分享讓他們有一個方向去準備這類型的面試，而成果也是非常的好。
因此作者寫了最後一篇來分享面試的一些心得與想法

包含下列主題，本文就針對幾個主題進行介紹，對於有興趣的讀者別忘了參閱全文
How important are the technical interviews in the EM interview loop?
Do I need to practice Leetcode to crack the coding rounds?
What if I don’t have relevant experiences to answer situational or experience based questions?
What if I’ve never had to let go of someone from my team?
How much detail should I go into when talking about a situation?
When asked about my weaknesses as a manager, what should I say?
How do I answer the question — what is your management philosophy?
What are some failure modes or traps to watch out for?

How important are the technical interviews in the EM interview loop?
1. 非常重要，雖然大部分情況下 EM 可能沒有太多寫程式的機會，但是沒有技術背景的人是要如何管理一群技術人?
2. 相對於單純寫 Code，技術架構的瞭解更為重要
3. 技術能力與領導經驗哪個更為重要還是要看公司，沒有一定答案，找工作的時後請先好好問一下 recruiter 這些小細節

Do I need to practice Leetcode to crack the coding rounds?
1. 具備 Leetcode medium 等級的能力即可，除非該公司期望 EC 職位的人也必須要從事 IC(Individual Contributor) 或是非常小心創的 Tech Head。不然大部分情況不會遇到太複雜的演算法題目
2. 更多的情況會是詢問如何使用一些基本的資料結構或是解決簡單的演算法問題
3. 主要是判斷你是否有能力將實際的問題轉換為程式碼，是否能夠讀懂,理解與除錯程式碼
4. 忘記 function/語法沒關係，畢竟會面是這個職位的近期程式寫的比較少是可預期的。最重要的還是思路，如何將問題的解法給描述出來

What if I don’t have relevant experiences to answer situational or experience based questions?
1. 這個是非常常見的問題，特別是剛踏入 EM 生涯道路的面試者，本來就很難有太多的範例與經驗去回答這些需要時間累積的問題。
2. 作者推薦誠實的告訴面試官自己這方面經驗不太多，然後可以針對這個範例去探討假如你未來遇到的話，你可能會怎麼面對之類的。

What if I’ve never had to let go of someone from my team?
1. 這是個非常常見的問題，但是就跟前述問題一樣，如果沒有這方面的經驗就誠實以對
2. 可以改從團隊中有人績效不太好為替代方式去探討，講述自己之前的管理哲學與處理方式

Due to the pandemic, we have all been spending much more time at home these days. I have also been concentrating most of my practices at home. In yoga, breathing exercises are key parts of the practice. They help to clear the energy blocks of our bodies, reduce stress, improve our respiratory system and blood circulation on top of many other physical and mental benefits.

Doing yoga in an environment with good and clean air definitely increases the efficiency of my practice. My new Dyson's air purifier automatically senses, captures, and traps pollutants for cleaner air in my home. It can capture 99.95% of particles as small as 0.1 micron (such as allergens, bacteria, pollen & mold) with its HEPA H13 filtration and helps to destroy formaldehyde. I love that it operates quietly, providing me with the tranquillity I need for practice while providing me with cool and fresh air to breathe in.

The Dyson air purifier is also perfect for pet owners as it can also help to remove odors and pet dander! Enjoy your time indoors with a healthier home and purified air

Scheme to Do Good

““Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.” (Matthew‬ ‭10:16‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

There are many cunning people in this world who use shrewdness for evildoing.

However, Jesus wants us to be wise like a serpent in a way that is harmless, but instead producing goodness and peace.

Every day, scheme how you can advance God’s kingdom here on earth, to ambush people with God’s love. Plan how you can surprise people with an unexpected encounter with God, and set ‘traps’ for them to be abundantly blessed through prayer and sharing God’s word.

If you ask God for wisdom, He will invite you into His heavenly throne room and share His secret plans with you.

God is not looking for those who are capable in the flesh because He can supernaturally impart skillfulness, strength, and wisdom. Just read about Bezalel, Samson, and Solomon in the Old Testament and you will know.

God is just looking for someone who is willing. “Yes Lord, use me! I am willing and available to do Your will.” He can use a believer like that and endow him or her with great grace for the tasks.

“But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.” (Matthew‬ ‭6:33‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Who is really going to act on Jesus’ words and seek God’s Kingdom and His righteousness as the number one priority every day? If that is you, God can use you more.

The easiest way for every believer to partner with God’s work is by praying.

“And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints (God’s people),” (Ephesians‬ ‭1:18‬ ‭AMP‬‬)

No one has the excuse not to pray. Did you know that your spirit-man has eyes, ears, and a mouth too, just like your body?

Even a believer who is deaf, mute, blind, in a coma or vegetative state can still pray with his or her spirit-man.

I pray that you be a person who schemes how to do good with every opportunity you get that is from the Holy Spirit. Shalom!

Primitive Technology - Wilderness Giant Lobster Traps At The Beach - Eating Delicious & Cooking
We perform survival on a deserted beach. we found natural fresh water source. then we found a piece of rotten coconut tree. we made a trap out of that tree. We went to find vines in the forest and made a trap. We set traps in the sea and caught a very large shrimp. We do special cooking and eat very well

I went to check the fish trap, fortunately a lot of fish got caught in the trap, I brought the fish and cooked it..

In order to have meat in the meal, I go to work as a trap to catch fish, then I go to harvest bananas and then pick wild vegetables to cook.
