Hey guys, welcome to a new interview series I am starting on this channel. In this series, I interview industry professionals/leaders and get insight into how they operate and what advice they can provide to others. The goal is to learn from people's experiences and share that with the world.

In this episode, I join Anjul Garg, a Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft, as he shares his journey into tech, how he got into Microsoft and what he thinks aspiring developers should be doing to get a tech job.
