Ace technical interviews with smart preparation
Programming Interviews Exposed is the programmer's ideal first choice
for technical interview preparation. Updated to reflect changing
techniques and trends, this new fourth edition provides insider guidance
on the unique interview process that today's programmers face. Online
coding contests are being used to screen candidate pools of thousands,
take-home projects have become commonplace, and employers are even
evaluating a candidate's public code repositories at GitHub--and with
competition becoming increasingly fierce, programmers need to shape
themselves into the ideal candidate well in advance of the interview.
This book doesn't just give you a collection of questions and answers,
it walks you through the process of coming up with the solution so you
learn the skills and techniques to shine on whatever problems you're
given.
This edition combines a thoroughly revised basis in classic questions
involving fundamental data structures and algorithms with problems and
step-by-step procedures for new topics including probability, data
science, statistics, and machine learning which will help you fully
prepare for whatever comes your way.
- Learn what the interviewer needs to hear to move you forward in the
process
- Adopt an effective approach to phone screens with non-technical
recruiters
- Examine common interview problems and tests with expert explanations
- Be ready to demonstrate your skills verbally, in contests, on GitHub,
and more
Technical jobs require the skillset, but you won't get hired unless you
are able to effectively and efficiently demonstrate that skillset
under pressure, in competition with hundreds of others with the same
background. Programming Interviews Exposed teaches you the interview
skills you need to stand out as the best applicant to help you get the
job you want.
