    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.

    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.

      @@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.

  • @briankarcher8338
    @briankarcher8338 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    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".

      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.

    • @KennyTalksCode
      @KennyTalksCode 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      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.

    • @AmbujSharmaiitkgp
      @AmbujSharmaiitkgp 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      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."

    Nice video there my friend Clement. Normally, I did not get stuck on an interview but like on an exam that I just took. Even though this was mainly meant for interviews, it reminded me of useful tactics that I can use to answer exams better in the future.

    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!

    • @RustyAndroid
      @RustyAndroid 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      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.

    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.

    • @niaprinters
      @niaprinters 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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
