CodePath.org’s Technical Interview Prep course gives college CS students who are underrepresented in tech the hands-on experience they need to ace the challenging algorithmic problems used by top tech companies in interviews.
The 10-week course relies on volunteers who help coach a small group of students through practice problems and mock interviews. Over the semester, you will build a professional relationship with your students and become a professional resource for them as they begin their career in tech.
Will you join us this fall? We are looking for live virtual support from volunteer coaches for 1 hour per week for 9 weeks on Saturday mornings. Training is provided before the course launch and support from CodePath is provided throughout the duration of the course.
Benefits for volunteers:
- Opportunity to give back and address systemic bias in tech
- Ability to form connections with high achieving CS students looking for internships and full-time jobs
- Training and continued support by CodePath staff to improve communication and teaching skills
- Performance feedback from students
- Low weekly commitment of 1-2 hours per week for 9 weeks this fall
