How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

• Read the whole description and match your examples to its requirements; use the same words the posting uses where they are true for you.
• Research the employer before the interview: what it does, who its customers are and recent news; prepare two or three questions about the work.
• Arrive early (or log in early for a video call), dress one step above the daily dress code, and test your camera and audio beforehand.
• Answer with short stories: the situation, what you did and the result. Give numbers when you have them and never invent them.
• Be honest about gaps; say what you did to learn and how fast you can close them.
• Ask about the team, the first 90 days, how success is measured and the schedule; do not open with salary and time off.
• When pay comes up, know the market range for the occupation and your lowest acceptable offer before you answer; ask for the full package in writing.
• Send a short thank-you message within a day, mentioning one thing you discussed.
• Have code, data work or projects you can show, and be ready to think aloud: many technical interviews test how you reason, not only the answer.

• U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission: prohibited employment practices

US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $452,600, which is 5.3 times the median household income ($84,818); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 60.9% of households own their home, 8% below the state average (60.9% against 66.2%).

Climate

The warmest month is Jul, averaging 69°F (20.3°C), and the coolest is Dec at 26°F (-3.6°C). About 403 mm (16 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Jul is the wettest month (70 mm) and Jan the driest (14 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
