Practicing for Coding, Algorithms and Data Structures Interviews

December 30, 2019 Leave a Comment

About 50% of the companies I interviewed for a software engineering manager position required a coding interview on a whiteboard or computer. Here is a list of the most up-to-date resources for preparing for the coding interview.

There are popular books such as Cracking the Coding Interview and sites like the following where you can practice:

  • https://leetcode.com/
  • https://www.careercup.com
  • https://www.interviewcake.com/ 

Also interesting is Coding Interview University a GitHub repo with over 100K stars containing a massive amount of resources to prepare you well for a technical interview at just about any software company, including the giants: Amazon, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft. There is also a popular repo with System Design prep material.

One of the best resources I found for preparing was https://www.algoexpert.io/. Use this code jojfu-46 for 15% off.

Here is a video from Google “How to: Work at Google — Candidate Coaching Session for Technical Interviewing.”
