Got embarrassed in an interview
I had a Javascript technical interview today, and it was actually going pretty well. We chatted for about 30 minutes, everything was smooth, and I answered most of the questions, probably around 90%.
Then they threw a coding question my way. It wasn't super complicated, and I even figured out the logic for it.
But when I started coding, I totally got stuck. I just blanked on the syntax. Usually, in situations like that, I'd just quickly Google it to get back on track, but obviously, I couldn't do that there.
They noticed I was struggling, so they asked me what my plan was. I explained my logic, and they seemed to get it.
At that point, I really started wondering if this syntax issue was a big problem for me. I was completely thrown off because my brain kept pulling up syntax from other programming languages. After that, I just kind of lost it.
How am I supposed to deal with this, or is syntax not something I should be stressing about?
