I got blasted by my first couple of technical evaluations when I started looking for a job again. They were so bad that I started thinking, "am I dumb now?" :D
I "fixed" it by doing three things:
- I spent regular time on sites like codewars.com to "get my mind in the game."
- I decided exactly which technologies I wanted to work on, and I focused my efforts in those areas.
- I created some GitHub projects that demonstrated my knowledge and tackled some small yet challenging problems. I also made sure to have some fun.
I showed off those GitHub projects during the interview process for my new job. Turns out I'm not so dumb. Well, mostly.
