Be genuine in interviews and don't try to be perfect. Admit that you made a mistake and always will make mistakes. But always guarantee that you'll have a well suited rationale behind it and you'll always hold yourself accountable to it. Don't sound like a robot who tries to be perfect just don't do silly mistakes 🙌.

Don't show being desperate in interviews. When you show desperation, you'll try to show how smart you're, how well fitted you're by trying to be complex. But most of the things the interviewer wants is first obviously are they technically fit to work here…
Actually I've got my own story of this. During one of my interviews, I was asked an easy leetcode question. But it was not asked directly in the interview. The way they asked me was in a follow up manner. So the first question was so easy I came up with the solution right away and the solution was an optimal one but me being me to show how smart I was I asked the interviewer If I can optimize this. So to give you context the solution I provided was O(n) time complexity and O(1) space complexity. Thank God the interviewer was a technical person and asked me how can you optimize this and what's the time and space complexity of your solution. I told the person the time and space complexity. Then they're like how can you optimize this from what you've now. I was like 😵💫😵💫😵💫 and then I said actually I can't optimize this from here. Then they continued with the follow up question. The question tag was easy because you can come up with the solution right away but it had lots of edge cases and if I hadn't know the question prior, I might have not passed that interview. Anyways follow your interviewer smts 😁.

So we're hiking today so bzum mkr yelem zare. Just be confident. If you don't think you've one, then build by taking small steps and celebrating small wins. But always differentiate the difference between confidence and arrogance.

Story Time
This happened on the new year eve. As usually me and my buddy didn't have any solid plan for the eve so we talked on the eve to go out and have fun. He, his team mate and I decided to go to new year eve party and apparently ID is required which I totally forgot. So I went to his place as we move from there. I rode bike for more than an hour cause maps decided to take me in a closed road 🤦♂️ and it was like 0°C and I had to have my phone on that freezing weather because it became unreliable 😭. Then I sat there for like 5 minutes and he tells me I should have my ID with me so I have to back to my place. This time I decided to take tube than ride a bike. Now all is good, went back and met them at the place. The place had a wide range of people where some are 18 and some are like 50+ 😂. Those 18 kids are giant besmam. I feel like they can see through my middle head into my skull 😭😭😭. Terrifying experience. Now the cool part was we started to dance when the music starts. For the first time ever I got compliment for my dances 😁 and fyi they're not my friends nor black 🙌. Sensetional isn't it 😂😂 gentlemen hide your ladies from me 😂😂😂.

So apparently I got lost during the hike and I usually get lost. Here are the main three reasons. First one for some reason my minds comes with a different place than the actual place I've to go to. The second one is maps leads to a closed road. And the third one which happened yesterday was my phone died in the middle of nowhere 😭😭😭. So I didn't hitch hike but I did that country side scene when the actors go through a barren road where only cars pass by with no pedestrian. I was the only pedestrian on the road Istg 😭. Unexpected but it was fun. Today I'll be staying home probably doing nothing having chat with friends and families.

This year I'm starting with a new and independently organized Dagmawi Babi event!
Dagmawi Babi's Meetup is the first of it's kind event organized by Dagmawi Babi and his team as a thank you to all the incredible individuals, creators, event organizers, companies and communities improving and accelerating the tech and design ecosystem.
It's a thank you for taking risks, for pioneering new ventures, for taking the blame, for investing so much of yourself into the benefits of everyone else, for spending months building epic things, for spending countless nights preparing events, for imagining a community that can be much better than what it is and working towards your vision.
We're going to spend an incredible full day where we listen to insightful keynotes, explore project showcases, attend a live podcast (Devtopia), hold an in-person Creator Awards (by Codenight) and so much more.
The date is Jan 24, 2026 and the event will take place at DxValley 2.0. So if all of this sounds like your type of event, register at dagmawi.dev/meetup and claim your ticket. Make sure to select "Attending" from the options.
Thank you again and I can't wait to see you there! Yours truly @Dagmawi_Babi

Let's start the week with one of the mostly asked interview question which is "Tell me about yourself". In this question you're expected to tell yourself in 2-3 minutes for most cases. First it feels like a lot of minutes if you're not organized and try to answer it on spot because you can't remember everything at a time. But if you're also remember your achievements, I'm sure you'll find a lot to talk about which makes you think 2-3 minutes are unfair. So here is my suggestion be well prepared ahead and talk only about your achievements that would impact the position you're applying for. The recommended mechanism is to tell about your present like who you're currently, where are you working/studying, and what you're working on if possible, then talk about your past which could be your experience/background and anything that can support your application and finally about your future and position, this one as who you'd like to be and indirectly hint how this position affects your future and you're a perfect match for it.

Let’s talk about the “Why us?” question.
It’s kind of like when a girl randomly asks you, “Why me?”
And you already know the wrong answers:
“Because you’re beautiful.”
“Because you’re smart.”
Sure, those things might be true but how many guys do you think say the exact same thing? 🙄
Generic answers don’t make anyone feel chosen.
What actually stands out is attention to detail. Remembering the small things. Showing that you see her, not just the idea of her.
The same logic applies to companies.
A lot of candidates say:
> “Because your mission and values align with me.”
And honestly? Recruiters hear that all day long.
What makes your answer different is being specific.
Do real research on the company. Look into their programs, culture, values, and initiatives. Then connect those to your own experiences and stories.
For example, in one of my interviews, I knew the company had a strong mentorship program. I also had prior experience both being mentored and mentoring others. So instead of giving a vague answer, I said I was excited about their mentorship culture because I had firsthand experience with it, explained what I learned from it, and how it shaped the way I work today.
You’re not just saying you align with them, you’re proving it with your story.
So when you answer “Why us?”, don’t be generic.
> Be intentional.
> Be specific.
> Show that you paid attention.
Because just like in real life, feeling chosen matters.
