How to
PREPARE FOR
INTERVIEW
Himanshu Kumar
Pick a good programming language to use
A good programming language to
use for coding interviews is one you
are familiar with and is suitable for
interviews.
Preferred programming languages
to use for coding interviews :-
Python, C++, Java.

Plan your time and tackle topics and
questions in order of importance
Always begin with a plan. Calculate the
amount of time you have left to realistically
prepare for your interview from now till the
day of the coding test, and carefully make a
plan of the topics and questions you will
cover per day, prioritizing the most
important ones first.

Combine studying and practicing for a single topic
For the sake of memory retention
and efficiency, it is best to study
for a single concept and then
immediately do relevant practice
questions for that topic.

Accompany practice with coding interview
cheatsheets to internalize the must-dos
and must-remembers
To maximize what you get out of
your practice, I recommend referring
to some coding interview
cheatsheets while you are studying
and practicing.

Prepare a good self introduction and final questions
Self introductions and final questions to
ask are almost always required at the
start and end of any software
engineering interview.
you should always spend some time to
craft an excellent self introduction and
set of final questions to ask.

Try out mock coding interviews
Coding right in front of your interviewer
can be a nerve-wracking experience
especially if you have never done it
before - which is why getting hands-
on experience is so important.

( If you have extra time )
Internalize key tech interview question patterns
Many coding interview solutions actually
involve a similar set of key patterns -
and learning them will help you solve
any long tail problem that is outside the
set of commonly asked coding interview
questions.
