Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Found these 2 unique websites to try and practice coding.

Project Euler- Mostly mathematical questions but mind blowing.

Rosalind - Bioinformatics based but helpful for all engineers.

Please share your views and other alternate platforms if aware.

amazing portal for coding problems

Hi guys, I am working at an MNC as a front end developer. I am going to complete 4 years soon here which is no less than a nightmare.

I should have switched so long ago but I am still stuck here.  And it's wfh, so I have been feeling so depressed lately having no professional life. 

I gave some interviews last year but couldn't clear and have been feeling demotivated since then.

Please help!!

Feeling lost in life

Software Developer

Pls shoot up any questions related to this.

I want to build a website on the similar lines of leetcode where people from non-codinh background can build portfolios and practice daily. Such as valuation, accounting, mergers, derivatives and many more.

Hi 
Wanted an opinion on how do you all tackle the assignment bit when it comes to assignments as part of hiring processes. One, how regular or normal is it at senior positions ? And two, I feel that a lot of times they just ask you to do everything that is expected of the job. Eg: Create a marketing strategy after analyzing landscape and top 3 competitors. Add graphs etc.
I always have a concern of getting most out of you. Since its at round 1 they would be getting multiple such assignments, which means by design lpt of this work will be a waste and lots of inputs freely sourced.
How do you all handle it ? Can you push back ?
P.S: Am from business/ marketing aide of things and not sure of how it works for techies/ product.

Assignments as a part of interview process

Brand Marketing Manager

Interesting thread from previous post on If candidate be asked un realistic problems in the interview

How do handle 100k RPS/s scale?
  
I believe such questions just to test if candidate can think and apply certain software engineering design principles at hand. Understand approach how do they handle corner cases ( if they can identify) technical depth, also good way to test fundamentals.  
  
For eg https://www.morling.dev/blog/one-billion-row-challenge/   
  
https://github.com/gunnarmorling/1brc  
  
Such problems really pushes candidates to thier limits. I love to go deep in OS & database, distributed systems.   
  
Would love to see, discuss what interesting tough engineering problems you folks ask in interviews?

Can someone please throw light on what kind of questions to expect? Any help or insights would be much appreciated :))

Category Manager Interview

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

After 2 years at Wipro in a support role, I've self-taught Java Spring Boot, Hibernate, and basic frontend skills, with good knowledge of DSA. However, I lack hands-on experience in real-time Java projects at my current company. What steps should I take to transition into a Java development role at another company?

Seeking Advice: Transitioning from Support Role to Java Development after 2 Years at Wipro

Can someone provide a list of companies which immediately sends an assessment/short project to complete to advance to interview rounds? Resume shortlist, referrals are not working for me. There are very few jobs where I have all the relevant tech stacks. May you get good karma for sharing. I will also add as I come across.

Job Hunt . List of companies?

Every second/third post on my feed is promoting some mentorship/coaching. Fed up with it. 

The post starts with some gyaan ( mostly related to interview) and then ends with mentorship or coaching promo. Especially people who cracked interview at amazon and microsoft. And now any random company. Some post has pic too, which is fully unrelated to the post. 

From SDE’s perspective. 
Job at work is different from interview. And i am sure current employees, if they have to go through interview process of the same company for the same position, most of them won’t be able to crack in the first go. ( Unless they know the exact questions to be asked ). 

Coding rounds.
Companies usually have a set of questions (question bank) and interviewer picks question from it. Except for the very exceptional case, it is quite difficult to solve these questions if you haven’t solved them ( or related questions) earlier in the given time. So, it all boils down to how close are you to their question bank. 

So, instead of other things, if linkedin mentors posted about the questions they were asked, that would be more useful.

Trying to get into Data science

Machine Learning Engineer

Welcome to Data Scientists's Private Community

I have been interviewing for analytics roles recently (7 YoE) and felt that my case study/ problem solving skills have become rusty and I am not able to think through with enough depth.
Could you all please suggest some resources to improve the problem solving skills, which helped you in the past. Thanks!

Case study prep resources

Data Analyst

Would love to discuss about my resume.  Need your opinion on the same.

Any Google or Msft PM here ?

Hello 👋 
I am aiming for a job at FAANG, I have never done DSA or CP, I was/am more into system design and just building stuff, now that I have decided on FAANG, I am starting to learn DSA (thinking about solving leetcode Q's in golang). 

Those who made it into FAANG, please share learnings/resources

What was your preparation strategy for FAANG?

Backend Engineer

Got placed last year ,then never touched leetcode again.
Now starting once again as I plan to make a switch. My leetcode profile looks so bad with those gaps 😮‍💨
Any suggestions on how to get interviews and Excel then ?

Starting again

Not getting any response, stuck on an internship with 0 growth.

If its about projects, please suggest what kind of projects should I build. I'm currently learning nextjs and typescript.

Roast my resume

My offer letter was revoked and I have been finding it hard to find a job since July. I gave few interviews and in final rounds was not selected(I guess need to upskill and be better) . More then that most people want me to work for less pay by saying "You don't have experience"(which is not even true, I did 2 internships, little bit of open source contribution).

Anyways, could you please give some practical tips on how to get a good job besides upskilling. Like how do I land more interviews? Etc?

P. S Referrals also don't seem to work. Got referral for few good companies but recruiters never reached out.

I believe my resume is good enough. I might not be someone who has a specialized talent but still I thought having two internships(both big public companies) would really help.

Tips please. Thanks.

So.. how does one get a job

Questions Like- conversions drop then how will u do an RCA ?
Or a new feature was launched, what metrics you will track..etc.. or problem solving rounds.. 
Could you guys please suggest good resources to practice & improve? Thanks in advance..
