I've got some tales to tell after conducting over 100 interviews at ‪@Google‬ and 50 at ‪@bluestacks‬ 🤓
Join me in this video as we dive deep into the wild world of tech (A.K.A software engineering) interviews.
I have seen at least 15-20 patterns of mistakes that candidates make. Even the good candidates make the same mistakes which is kind of sad.
In the video I will talk about why researching about the interviewer, knowing your interview level and type are important before the interview. I will also uncover the veil from a series of mistakes that candidates make during the interview like: Jumping right into the code, overpreparing for behavioral interview, not mentioning space time complexity, not mentioning alternatives etc.
Finally, we will try to compare software engineering with an art form and understand why doing most of the things mentioned above are important.
Share this video with your tech-savvy buddies who are on their interview grind. Good luck and enjoy the show.
