Ask HN: How can I prepare for my new job as a software developer?

Hello,

In September I will start my first real job as a software developer (mainly backend) in a great company. What's the best thing I can do to prepare for it (i.e. to quickstart instead of having to learn everything on the job)? Study algorithms and refresh some of the stuff I studied in my CS courses? Or learn the stack they use on a daily basis in depth (e.g. frameworks, DBs, etc.)?

Thank you!
