QUESTION 19 OF 40

Which coding languages are you familiar with?

Coding may not be a skill you'll need or even be asked at your interview, but if the position you're interviewing for is somewhat technical, be prepared for a response. The reason being is the interviewer is looking for evidence of continued learning and improvement. Your desire and willingness to expand your knowledge into different areas of technology will make you a stand-out candidate. Discuss the coding languages you are most familiar with and ask the interviewer if they are looking for any specific coding languages. You want to have the opportunity to address any potential shortcomings in your experience right away.

"I began my current position with very minimal coding skills. I can confidently say that I now have intermediate coding skills - primarily in HTML, CSS, and, more recently, JavaScript. I'm largely self-taught and started to learn as a hobby to build digital systems on the weekend. I've noticed over the last five years that this knowledge is becoming particularly valuable in my day-to-day work. Are there any coding languages you are specifically looking for?"

"Coding has not been the primary focus of my training. With that said, I have worked with individuals who are fluent in CSS and JavaScript. Are there any coding languages you need me to learn to succeed in this role? I am happy to take any required coursework."
