Hey everyone! I have my first interview coming up for a software intern position at a medical device startup this Friday, and I could really use some advice on how to prepare. The recruiter mentioned it would be a 30-minute technical interview, and since the company focuses on health tech, I assumed I'd be expected to use Python. I've updated my resume accordingly and plan to go over "Automate the Boring Stuff with Python" to brush up on my skills. I'd really appreciate any tips on what to expect and any preparation strategies you can share!

Definitely avoid making assumptions about the language you’ll be using. It’s best to reach out to the recruiter and ask specifically if you’ll be coding live and what language they expect you to use. They will likely appreciate your initiative.
Yeah, I get that! I’ve already set up a time with the recruiter, but given the job description is vague about the tech stack, should I email back to ask for more details? It feels a little awkward since I already confirmed!
