Many times, it’s not your technical competency that holds you back from landing your dream job, it’s how you perform on the behavioral interview.

Whether you’re a software engineer, product manager, or engineering manager, this course will give you the tools to thoroughly prepare for behavioral and cultural questions. But beyond even technical roles, this would be useful for anyone, in any profession.

As you progress, you'll be able to use Educative's new video recording widget to record yourself answering questions and assess your performance.  By the time you’ve completed the course, you'll be able to answer any behavioral question that comes your way - with confidence.
