- Back to your resume and cover letter you’ve been working on: What other next steps do you want to take to make these two components stronger?
- I plan on having Tracey Monteiro and some others review my resume and cover letter. I plan on applying to Guild, but I am waiting until tomorrow so I can add my most recent React project to my resume.
- Outreach Brainstorming: Either explore the company you wrote a cover letter for or find a new company to explore this week; Go to their company LinkedIn page and start to explore the employees. Who are a couple people you could reach out to? Why?

- What is a "data model", and how does it relate to the DOM in a front-end application? The data model is your source of truth, where all/most of your data such as arrays, objects etc. exist. An example of an object could be a stored user profile with email, full name, home address, account number, password/login info, etc. These could be hardcoded into a local data file like our earlier projects at Turing, but are more likely to be stored on and retrieved from an API to instantiate objects and then populate the DOM with whatever data is relevant coming from the data model. For example when a user logs into an online banking website or app they might want to see data such as their current bank account balance and credit card balance etc. This can be retrieved from a server via fetch get request in connection with the user's login information when they hit submit, then present that data on the DOM such as name, maybe an email address, probably their relevant accounts and balan

Below you will find a walkthrough of my problem solving process in regards to the technical challenge I received from Meltwater. I was unable to solve this challenge, but I am providing this detailed walkthrough for a follow up interview, as I may still be eligible for a position at Meltwater. I will try to be as detailed as possible while also keeping this as succinct as possible. The challenge asked for this to be solved using Node and Angular, but I was allowed to attempt it with Javascript, my primary coding language, and React, the only framework with which I am currently familiar. I never got to building the UI, but I will discuss how I would have designed that after I discuss my process in regards to solving the functionality.
First thing I do when approaching a coding challenge is ask my self 4 questions: What, want, methods, and how?
- What? - What inputs am I working with? How many datasets, and what date type are they? In this technical challenge, I will be receiving two strings. One string is
