What industry do you all work in?

Trucking and construction. Sold all the cows so I'm not a rancher anymore. Not that I was ever much of one to begin with.

Go through the entire book Cracking the Coding Interview. Understand all the basic data structures, searches and sorts (lots of videos on YouTube). Get very comfortable in at least one language. Know its features and how it compares and contrasts to some other languages. Have a project to talk about (build a website that does something for example). Udacity has lots of nanodegrees that go pretty in depth in projects designed by companies (you can do the nanodegrees for free even though it tries to make you pay). Then start interviewing at companies. You should also focus on what you'd like to do (web development, machine learning, etc).
