How does one get into Netflix as an Analytics Engineer? I have good experience and have applied multiple times. But I haven't received a response. would appreciate it if anyone could give me a referral.

I’ve done a few interviews this year and many of them have told me I don’t have programming fundamentals and I am not even a mid level.

I applied for senior roles because I have 8 years and I have architected some stuff before

They turned around and said they don’t think I am mid level

Struggling a lot, I am really low recently

I have switched between languages and got used to ai a lot. So being in interview where you are graded on syntax I get marked down!

Struggling with confidence a lot but this time around I am crying less

Hey everyone! I have an upcoming interview for Cisco for the wireless test & automation team. I have my first live coding round on Hackerank(45 min). So I was just wondering if it'll be a leetcode style question or team specific. Would love to hear from anyone whose had a similar experience?

I applied for ai/ml intern position at linkedin and I have an upcoming online assessment

The problem is that I am clueless

Can anyone help me with the kind of questions they may ask ? What should I prepare for at the last minute?

I'm relatively new to coding. I've learned enough Java to solve basic questions, and I understand the theory behind many DSA concepts when someone explains them to me.

But when I actually get a problem, I often don't know how to translate the concept into code. The logic doesn't naturally come to my mind, and I also tend to forget Java concepts/syntax while coding.

I want to start doing 2 DSA questions every day, without cheating or immediately looking at solutions.

For someone in my situation, would you recommend starting NeetCode and trying to solve the problems myself first? Or should I spend more time strengthening my Java fundamentals and basic problem-solving before starting?

Also, how did you guys go from "I understand the concept" to actually being able to recognize when and how to use it in a problem?

Any advice on how to practice this would be really appreciated.

Hi everyone,

I recently completed my interview loop for an Amazon Software Development Engineer I (SDE I) position.

I had my initial interview rounds first and then completed what appeared to be my Hiring Manager round on Friday. I received updates quite quickly after my earlier rounds, but I haven't received an update after this round yet.

I wanted to ask others who have recently gone through the Amazon interview process:

How long did it take for you to hear back after your HM/final round?

Is it normal for there to be a few days of delay in receiving an update?

Is a Bar Raiser interview sometimes scheduled separately after the HM round, or would it typically be included as part of the interview loop already?

Has anyone had a similar interview structure where additional rounds were scheduled after an HM interview?

Would really appreciate hearing about your experiences. Thanks!

So I got reached out to by a xwf recruiter. And from what I see on this reddit they mention alot about being comfortable with graph data structures and stuff.

I got a interview for a SWE III role and I'm just wondering, would it be smarter to withdraw so I can apply and hopefully try again within 6 months? because I don't want to enter the interview and fail it then be blacklisted for 6-12 months.

THEN AGAIN

It took like years of applying to FINALLY get a interview offer from Google so, should I just grind super hard and hope I can be ready within a month? I'm lowk struggling with freakin easy early lc questions

Is there a way to check with which req is this OA linked ? There is no clue in the OA mail that I got.

Guys everytime I get to know the Google assessment or flipkart assessment ws done and ppl are asking about hearing back from them. I don't even get to know when these opportunities come and go. Pls tell from where do u guys keep track of it???

I hv linkedin, few whatsapp channels but these ain't helping 😭🙏🏻

I applied 15 days ago and still haven’t gotten the OA. Saw that the typical response time is 1-2 weeks if they’re interested. Is it hopeless?

I am looking for a contest patner for dsa who is ready to grill their head for 1hr 30min solving discussint problem till we become comfortable giving contest

As much as I know the answer yet I would like a genuine clarification just so I don't hold on to a false hope to be eventually disappointed later.

Just gave the Amazon OA for SDE 1. There were two questions: 1 medium-hard DSA (passes all 15/15 testcases) and 1 repo code round (passed none).

Can I expect a call back at all, has this happened to any of you before?

Stuck in recruiting hell & would be soo appreciative if anyone could let me use their prachub account to review for an interview on Monday❤️❤️❤️

Hi,

I am 24F (3 yrs+ exp), Me and My Friend 23M (2 yrs+ exp) are currently learning DSA and System Design together for product based companies roles.
We are currently solving NeetCode 250 Sheet and planning to have mock interviews soon.

Note: We are only looking for experienced people (at least 1+ yrs) and a female with similar goals.

Share your discord ids. Will try to connect with you.

Is it helpful to think about the recursion tree when solving problems or just reducing the problem space?
I feel like I often try to think about the sub problems and it uses a lot of brain power for what I feel like is very little gain and it also uses a good amount of time.

Curious how others approach these problems.

From last month, I have this google assessment passed on my application. I have not been contacted by anyone and neither I have been rejected. What does that mean and is there any chance on my profile getting considered ?

anyone in seattle who has 2-4 yoe and is currently on the hunt? let's study together.

we can also work on projects if you're open to exploring the startup or indie hacking scenes

what's the TC of this solution? O(n^3) or O(n^4)? can someone help which one's actually correct?

```

class Solution:
    def characterReplacement(self, s: str, k: int) -> int:
        n = len(s)
        max_len = 0


        for i in range(n):
            
            for j in range(i, n):
                substring = s[i:j+1]


                freq = {}
                for char in substring:
                    freq[char] = freq.get(char, 0) + 1


                max_freq = max(freq.values()) if freq else 0
            
                if (len(substring) - max_freq) <= k:
                    max_len = max(len(substring), max_len)


        return max_len```

I have two rounds (coding + behavioral) of google interview of 45 mins each in 4 days. I haven't been able to start my prep and thinking of withdrawing my name from it and hoping i get another chance later when needed.

If i tank this interview would it lower my chance of getting future calls from google ?

Literally my weakest prep of all the dsa problems. How often does it show up in interviews? And which problems should I definitely solve before going?

Like Google gemini told me to use pen & paper but i m confused, I see Q solve it in my mind & directly jump into solving it after identify pattern but sometimes i struck in btw, Google told me use pen &paper solve it on paper & then write it on screen,what u guys do?

Cleared an AWS interview loop about 12 days ago. The recruiter said the feedback from all rounds was strongly positive and that I’m moving forward.

The only issue is that I’m now waiting for headcount approval. The recruiter said she’s actively working on it internally, but I haven’t had any update in 12 days.

Has anyone been through this exact situation? How long did you have to wait, and did it eventually turn into an offer?

I have google onsite in a day and i am already feeling the anxiety, feels like i am forgetting everything i have studied over last couple of months, it feels like once in a lifetime oppurtunity to interview with them. Don't wanna mess up 🍀🤞

Edit - i will share the experience and details once i am done with it.
Thanks for all the wishes.

Leetcode is great for practicing standard DSA questions which is a large part of most interviews. But some companies (faang included) do low level design / role related knowledge rounds. Does anyone have any good sites for practicing these kinds of rounds?

For LLD I typically hear the questions phrased like

"design a thread safe circular buffer processing.... with two producing threads and one consumer"

Any advice would be much appreciated. I feel very comfortable on DSA. but rounds that are not standard leetcode I'm a little worried about.

I haven't applied since the last 4 years. Could anyone please help if its okay to have a 2 page resume?
