CODING INTERVIEW STEP BY STEP GUIDE | FOLLOW THIS ALGORITHM FOR SUCCESS IN A TECHNICAL INTERVIEW

In this video we are going over my personal algorithm for solving a question in a technical interview. This approach works so well because it ticks all the boxes and gives your interviewer the best signal regarding your coding abilities.

If you follow this guide you'll have the best chances of success, provided you actually answer the question correctly! Nothing I can do to save you if you don't know how to solve it :)

If anyone wants to try, it is LC 515. Not exactly the same, instead of product you have to print a list of max values. But you can try your variation in it.

Thanks for this run through!

This is an incredible video! I've been so anxious about preparing for coding interviews, but you made the process feel so approachable and manageable. I'm really glad this showed up in my recommendations and will definitely be working through the rest of your videos as I continue to prepare for interviews! Thank you and keep up the amazing work :)

[HASEakaLandShark]

Awesome content, preparation and great insight on the tips for interviewing as well! Your work is much appreciated and looking forward to more

[jonathanlo]

This is amazing content! This is literally the secret sauce (after leetcoding) for any technical interview. Thank you so much for your time and effort in helping all of us obtain our dreams.

[SamtheSWE]

Great video! Thank you for posting and making the interview process seem less daunting

[Change]

I'm glad I found your channel, it has been very helpful for me, especially this video, when I solved questions on leetcode I always skipped step 2 and 5, time to include them in my preparation I guess. I appreciate the videos and am inspired by your consistency of making them.

[Orenoid_]

This is really helpful to get familiar with the process, thanks a lot!

[alexandercannon]

Great video! Very concise and to the point! Specificity kills ambiguity.

[eren_njaeger]

I'm already here before this channel will reach million subs!

[winnieshe]

Thanks for sharing. I very much needed a video like this!

[burneryak]

BTW shout out to you for making this amazing video's I really find it amazing. Hope you continue to make more of such kind. What would be even more interesting is creating a small discord channel for this community where one can discuss about future video's/ questions in details.

[justlc]

Highly informative and helpful! Thanks for this.
Requesting Word Ladder 2 in the upcoming videos.

[zainablawal]

It is an amazing video.
Love every concept of it.
I am still anticipating the system design videos as well.
Well done and thank you so much for the free premium content 😊. Emphasis on free please..😀 😊

[Jack-hkkl]

Besides the awesome sauce that youve given us, I just wanna point out that you kinda sound like Joji

[pieter]

Interesting verification approach of annotating state in a separate comment block, instead of inline with the code. Have you tried both and found this works better?

[keerthivasan]

Another question might be if the values all are positive and non zero numbers

[TheQuancy]

I dont have trouble with algorithms. I have trouble with the OOP design questions

[AntroullaStasinou]

Is faang similar to the step internship in google

[joo]

you're screwed if the interviewer ask you deal with the overflow

[ganeshkumar]

what if the tree contains negative values?
