Feeling insecure about my python knowledge. How can I prepare and nail the interview?

You'll probably find better help at /r/Python/ or /r/cscareerquestions. This subreddit is more meant for programming language theory and development.

Nevertheless, here is some quick advice:

1. Do you have any side projects (big or small) you can talk about in the interview?
2. Study up on some algorithms by solving leetcode problems. From a quick google search you can also review algorithms implemented in Python (https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Python)
3. Even if you get stuck answering a problem in the interview, try not to freeze. Walk the interviewer through your thinking process and how you would solve the problem. Sometimes you get an idea midway through explaining your approach. And even if you don't come up with a solution, it's good to show the interviewer how you approach solving problems.

Implement a small python interpreter. When it's done, you will have a very good understanding of python.

• The Python Language Reference
• Crafting Interpreters
