Example questions: How long did you study? If you used Leetcode, did you follow any particular strategy? How many problems did you do? Did you use premium for access to locked questions, or was the base questions enough? What tips do you wish you had known beforehand? TC: 165k, YoE: 5
No need to prepare, just go and answer everything honestly.
Sounds like a good way to fail π€
Interviewing is a performance art for most of us. Perhaps you're one of the few people who can do it off the cuff but for most people it takes a lot of preparation and practice to put forth the performance that interviewers want to see. You absolutely have to prepare
You forgot YOE
Fixed.
I did the premium leetcode pretty heavily for about two months, studied the intro parts of cracking the Coding Interview. Probably did about 50 questions, many I tried to do on the whiteboard at home and with a friend as mocks
Were you working full time while you did that OP?
Yeah I was working full time while studying. Was a very busy couple of months
Are there meetup groups for aspiring FANGers to help each other prep for interview?
DM me
If you did ACM or IOI, no need preparation at all.
Two weeks studying Cracking the Code Interview.
300 hours of coding
I scored > top 10% in a few programming competitions, then Google got my resume somehow and was like "u wanna interview with us bro?" and I told myself I was gonna study Cracking the Coding Interview but then I was too lazy. And then I got the job anyway.
Around 210 leetcode over 1.5 months. Had premium, it's cheap. Could have saved a lot of time by giving less attention to leetcode hard.
I'm stepping through Google's LC interview questions, do you have any advice for an upcoming onsite with G? I can't tell if I'm getting any better... Nor if I'm studying the right things.
Know all the common graph and tree algorithms and be able to implement them quickly. You'll know you're getting there if you can crank out a bug free solution for a medium in 10-15 min

Leetcode till you make it! And how much is premium compared to what you will be getting for your new compensation? You should not be asking the question on whether premium is worth it.
I already have premium. Was more curious on if people felt the premium problems were uniquely exhaustive in their contribution to prep.
Premium imho is to filter the company wise questions vs the premium problems.
