Is it really worth the time, to join a coding interview bootcamp especially InterviewKickstart? I did get to read some reviews(more positive and 1/2 negatives) on Quora too. Is it worth only for new graduates?
IK alum here. I did the course last year. It is good but not a magic wand as some people on Blind claim. I think if you spend enough time at LeetCode, you will get a good offer. For me personally, I think it was my perseverance with LeetCode that helped me more than IK. I did find classes on graph, tries incredibly useful but I don’t think you need to spend 6K to clear interviews. Just keep On preparing and keep on interviewing.
Do you mind elaborating on your preparation phase on using Leetcode? Also, did you switch to leetcode AFTER you completed IK course?
Can confirm its not a magic pill, had to LC
I think I depends on your goal. If you are looking to get a job out of it, I personally haven't seen a successful case yet. Good luck though. Leet code for actual interview practice
The Interview Kickstart people cite a very high success rate at getting people into FAANG and other highly regarded tech companies, with very high typical TC. Granted talk is easy, but I reckon there has to be some truth to it?
There has to be some truth to it otherwise they would seriously be risking a lawsuits for false advertisement right. Its just that from the people I know (only 2, so it's anecdotal) they didn't get a faang job and 1 is still unemployed, and we've combed through angle list for jobs at small start ups. He's just not getting interviews at smaller places. For faang, referrals are the only way and obviously they failed because they didn't do enough leet code to practice the algorithm (my opinion). Not gonna shit talk a company specifically since I didn't go through it.
