My experience in setting up SSH Git & TortoiseGit on Windows 10 WSL 2

My current projects were using GitLab but you can easily translate equivalent steps for GitHub. Here are the steps I took and the mistakes along the way:

  1. I went to Gitlab Account Settings > SSH Keys
  2. I clicked Learn more and followed through the steps:

My C# .NET Sprint Interview Guide

C# .NET Sprint Interview Guide

The following is my personal interview questionaire I used on medium-to-fast-paced-interviews which usually happens on job fairs or speed hiring (at least from where I am). I believe I had 15-20 mins interviews using this, iirc (Or maybe +10 mins if your introductions take time 🤔).

Note This is mostly (if not "only") for experienced developers who wish to apply as Jr/Mid/Senior C# dev.

The Guide
I. Introduce your selves
  1. Introduce yourself and your company
  2. Interviewee's turn ("Briefly, tell me about yourself?" Check CV/Resume.)
