Have you used any of those two resources for interview prep? what are the pros and cons of each? is it helpful for beginners?
They really arent worth it if you have a job
I went through Outco's program a few years ago and I'd say the resume workshop alone was worth the cost, especially for a beginner engineer. I was able to get in front of a lot of companies because of how I worded my accomplishments and work history in a quantitative way. The program is intense and requires you to be an active participant, but I truly feel like the people there care about their students and want them to succeed. They also support their alums should they need their service in the future. Of course it won't be as attentive as if you were a current student, but you can still schedule a time to chat with someone or have your resume reviewed. There's also weekly meetings you can attend to brush up on your technical and non-technical skills. Overall I would recommend Outco to any software engineer looking for a job. My cohort had jr engineers as well as seasoned ones with 20+ years experience. I think almost everyone was able to benefit from the program.

I had used pathrise out of desperation. Not worth the 10% of your salary they charge. None of the interview preps are worth what they charge. Just leetcode
So you used only leetcode to bag the job you have?
Yes
