How do you guys do it? I just had my first encounter yesterday for a data engineering job and I sincerely fucked up. My mind went completely blank, I was thinking along all the wrong lines and I think I didn't even correctly understand the question, because there were all these words that I've never heard of.

How do you even prepare for something like that?
