## Description

Preparing for technical interviews has become increasingly complex: fast-changing tech stacks, competitive job markets, and limited time to prepare. 
In this talk, I’ll show how AI agents can act as a personalized career coach, helping developers prepare strategically for interviews and increase their chances of landing a dream job. We’ll walk through a step-by-step, agent-driven process: 
1. Engineer the right query – defining the target role, required skills, and interview expectations 
2. Analyze the job market – identifying in-demand skills and aligning preparation with current hiring trends 
3. Set a realistic timeline – creating a structured preparation plan based on experience and goals 
4. Curate learning resources – using AI agents to gather, prioritize, and adapt resources for coding, system design, and behavioral interviews
