My best strategy: - the technical part is only 45 minutes, so kill the time with each answer, take little longer your time to explain each answer so the number of questions will be reduce. you don't know what they ask, so you don't want more questions... lol. For me, I took almost 15 minutes to explain OSI models. so, imagine, how many questions I eliminated ...lol first is first, preparation. it is a key. I sit down every evening after dinner 3 to 4 hours for a week to study all the A+ networking course, I didn't have immediate work experience so all I was trying is crack the interview... again ...lol. second: calm down, have confident, confident is another key, sometimes, for some questions you need immediate judgement to answer the questions. if you are not confident to your self, you will fumble or they can catch you for faking. so believe in yourself. even if you fail the interview. you will walkout with good experience. third: study job advert and requirement, study your resume, be ready to answer every word of your resume. The behavioral part is another 45 mins. again same plan, take your time to answer, he asked me literally 4 questions coz I took at least 10 minutes to explain each answer, because behavioral is all about STAR method(YouTube it), prepare yourself to tell the lots of stories. such as: tell me the time you went above and beyond ? now as i did not have experience, I created a story.... lol 10 minutes and boom .... study all of the 16 amazon leadership principles, for me they were in my lips with each principles = one STAR method story that's all.
