When I give interviews I always appreciate someone asking questions, walking through their approach, and asking for a hint. I would much rather you ask for a hint and move forward than see you fumble over yourself. We time box the whiteboard sections to 30 mins so if you spend 10 of that going in a loop that's a tight crunch to finish your solution. By explaining your thought process it makes it easier for us to see where you're getting hung up and what sort of hint may nudge you in the right direction. It can also be difficult to find a whiteboard exercise that resonates with the kind of work you will be doing, so sometimes the whiteboard is more of an exercise in how you break down problems and less about how many algorithms you have memorized. Talk it out with the person giving your interview, it really helps the process.
I really got stuck during my interview. I used the gentle way for asking the hint. After explaining my approaches, I said that "I am not able to reach the solution using the two approaches I considered." and the interviewer just replied, "Okay!".
All interviews are remote now. The best tip is to get your wife to stand quietly by your side and start googling the answers on a laptop and you just read the solution. Then once they employ you they will wonder why you know nothing
Great tips! Big agree on the first tip of reiterating the problem. I recently made a vid on this too, but I think it’s also valuable to come up with a few more examples if you’re really stuck because it could help you start to see certain patterns that weren’t obvious when there was only a single example. Whatever you do, do NOT dive head first into coding. Second tip is smart, and you’re right that there are many subtle ways to... extract assistance from the interviewers haha I also recommend reading about the BUD technique in CTCI for a very tangible process for coming up with better solutions when you’re stuck. Of course, as you mention at 0:26, there’s also no replacement to having adequate practice beforehand.
I went trough the Amazon on site interviews. The first one was okish and in the last 3 I felt that I performed at my best. I was stuck for a moment during the first interview, but the interviewer will try to help you. What you should do is keep calm, ask questions, try to come up with an easier version of the same problem and solve it, suppose that the language you are implementing your solution on has some functionalities that my help you. With that I felt that I was able to make my first interview from average to a more than decent one and with very good performance in the next ones to get the offer :D!
Lol the network issues ACTUALLY happened to me when I was stuck. The interviewer was trying to get me to use a shared site to run the code live and it wasn't working. So I suggested I just run it on my machine with screenshare. Well Zoom messed up and would NOT let me, and froze. Then it dropped me. Holy crap I'm sure they thought it was me trying to stall but I wasn't in fact that event just put me into a mental tailspin and just made it worse. Had to reboot my computer and I reconnected asap and the interviewer was not amused. To top it off, he didn't like my solution and told the in-house recruiter that basically I'm worthless.
This was actually motivating because this is an area I need to be better at, and you mention techniques and procedures to problem solving which is awesome.
hahahhahahaha You owe me a job Clement, I was about to have my interview and I only watched like about 80 seconds of this video lol Guess I should've not used the tip without hearing the whole thing LOL
@@sainathsingineedi2922 Honestly the service is worth every penny. The algo questions are not pulling any punches and I'm learning more syntax tricks in the process. The interface is HIGHLY customizable. I can switch not only from light and dark mode, but syntax highlights as well. They even let you chose between vim, emacs, and sublime style text editing too. You even get to choose between multiple programming languages how to solve the problem. They also go into great detail about time and space complexity of each way you can solve each question which in a previous course for comparison only told me how much time complexity something might have but not being nearly as clear explaining why. My only real criticism is the videos explaining the algos are kinda dry and slow. Clément explains them using the share screen over a digiboard in realtime, and a lot of these can be summed up using slides and diagrams that he instead takes the time to draw up. I use a chrome extension Video Speed controller to watch all my videos at 3x normal speed but even then my brain tends to wander off. Some parts he explains very well and what ultimately I wish was explained better was certain code tricks in syntax (commenting code at certain hat tricks would be good). So really all that needs improvement is a little more polish in his video explanations. Some videos run up to an hour when really 20 minutes would be enough if done with better editing and refinement. 9.5/10 would highly recommend.
Do you know what is the scariest thing on this planet - to get stuck in a coding interview And do you know how to get rid of this intimidation - algoexpert
Just purchased Algo Expert I am extremely exited to get started and would just want to thank you for all the content and help you 100% deserve and worked for all the success you have defo a big inspiration
If you're going to cut your internet connection, make sure you do it via some sort of pedal switch, so you can have both hands clearly up when you press it!
The tips in this video are the following: 0) fake a bad Internet connection 1) re-iterate the problem, the constraints, sentences, etc out loud 2) talk out loud. Read out loud the problems. Give signals you’re a good software engineer 3) ask for a hint If you’re stuck after these tips, continue the conversation with the interviewer and probably you’ll get the idea to unstuck you
I would recommend that you should only mention those projects on your resume whose code is available online(On github etc.) Because it is quite possible that interviewer would like to see you code.
I don’t think they would ask you to show it in an interview, but it’s possible that they look at it when they screen your resume, so good to have it available.
What Kenny Yuan said: a recruiter is unlikely to specifically ask you to show them your project code (or to even be the one reading through your project code), but generally speaking, it's always good to have your code publicly visible, like on a public GitHub repository for example.
Talking it out really is the best approach. Even if you know the answer you should talk it out. It helps them to get into your head and show how much you know, alternate approaches you considered, etc. Better for them to realize you got 90% of the problem figured out than 0%. If you got 90% of it yourself and need assistance on the last 10%, that's fine. Even if you can't solve it after the hint it's better to walk out at 90% than 0%. Another benefit of talking through the problem as you do it is sometimes they'll notice something as you code it or are describing it and the interviewer will bring it to your attention before you go down the wrong path too far. You won't even ask for the hint, they'll just be kind enough to give it to you. Like in your example, if they notice that you're sorting the values and complaining about time complexity they may just say "Oh, the array is already sorted".
At this point I’m just turning down any interview process involving a coding assessment. If questions are asked that have nothing to do with the work that’s done, I’m not interested.
Hey clement! Nice video. I had a very awesome idea that you could implement in algo expert to make it stand out even more. People who buy the product should get one mock interview at the end to assess the knowledge they acquired. Or maybe they could pay a little more for this feature.
Many of the time the problem has some valid and tricky info that we overlook it. So, it's very much helpful to "walk through" the whole thought process again again, this is a very good piece of advice. Thanks a lot ❤❤❤❤❤
@@anonymusk9397 yep if you already know concepts of ds algo and start algoexpert try to solve the problem by yourself first then watch the solution complete 100 questions and aside from that practice on leet code too then you can crack if you practiced both
If you go through the entire AlgoExpert platform-data structures crash course, 100 questions, all coding assessments (not talking about SystemsExpert here)-you will be very well prepared for FAANG coding interviews. Will you be guaranteed to pass them? No. Everyone is different; some people require more practice than others, and there's always a luck factor. But you _will_ be well prepared.
It happened with me in one of google interview round, interviewer asked me to optimise space of my solution, I asked 2 min to think, I was thinking to myself and trying to optimise used data structure in that solution and after 1 min interviewer told me to think about different data structure and it clicked to me and I immediately told the optimize solution and coded. But while getting feedback HR told me that although you have given correct solution but by using hint, you were not loud during your thought process.
I think this is a common issue people face in interviews, and while it’s okay to take some time to quietly think, I would try to fill most of the silence in an interviewer. In your case, I would have just spoken everything going through my mind, even if you aren’t sure it’s correct. The interviewer would much rather hear you consider using a data structure and then realize what’s wrong with it than nothing at all. The other reason it’s good to say everything on your mind, even if it’s wrong, is that it gives the interviewer chances to help you and drop hints, which they can’t do if they don’t know what you’re thinking.
Yes, I agree, giving right solution is good but explaining the process how you arrived at the solution is also important. In one of the mail they clearly mentioned that, "Talk through your thought process about the questions you are asked. In all of Google's interviews, our engineers are evaluating not only your technical abilities but also how you approach problems and how you try to solve them."
By the way, it’s cool that you were able to get your feedback, I didn’t know they let people do that! Did you just reach out to your recruiter afterwards and ask?
No I didn't ask for feedback. After 3 rounds of interview I waited for 2 weeks, one day recruiter called me and almost half an hour she explained me what were the questions how I approached each of them, was it optimal solution, was it modular, what mistake I had done etc. I like that they checks all these details and make notes of them.
just got out of my very first coding interview practice at the bootcamp I'm taking and I got stuck in a really basic problem omg haha I really am going to have to practice more

Hey Clément! I’ll be graduating this December and am trying to get a job lol. A couple of questions I have: when should I start applying (I’m about halfway done with AlgoExpert, trying to finish within the next two weeks)? And should I apply for a job or an internship (I’ve had a few internships in the past and have some more projects but maybe landing an internship is easier?)? Thank you so much for everything, your info helps a lot!
You should apply to both and see which ones call you back. With that said, if everyone is working from home in your area, don't be surprised if internships are harder to find than normal.
Hi Clement, I just wanted to let you know that i know how to invert a binary tree. Thank you for your time. I hope u have a great day Best Regards, Shabaz
How bad is it to just use pseudo code? I have never done a coding interview yet but usually while coding I get hung up on syntax and less hung up on the logic
Don't you think Algoexpert has way toooo less content to get into FAANGs for someone who has started from scratch? Like you say in ads - "Just do Algoexpert". In my experience, it can't completely replace platforms like LeetCode, it's just addon among others. In my experience Algoexpert can replace LeetCode type of platform if it increases the content.
You are right.... Infact algo expert is good to help clear the interview, not the coding rounds screening test, solely for interview purpose algo expert is good
