<h2>[EXAMPLE]</h2>
<ol>
<li>] Nearly 38 rejections in the span of 2-3 months sounds rueful to the average person. But for great software engineers, such resilience is a common trait.&nbsp;</li>
<li><strong>] All too often, great software engineers pass through traditional resume screenings and freeze during the whiteboard coding interview.&nbsp;</strong><a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/vivekravisankar/2015/05/04/the-rise-and-looming-fall-of-the-engineering-whiteboard-interview/#7247d53471ba" target="_blank">coding on-the-spot in front of 3-5 different people</a>&nbsp;multiple times isn&rsquo;t a great reflection of your coding skills.</li>

Job interviews are difficult by design.</strong></li>
