Hi,
I am looking for 3-4 people who would be willing to join a study group for interview preparations. We will be starting with DSA and system design and have mock interviews. A perfect candidate will be someone who is:
1. A working  professional who already knows the grind and wants to practice for next big switch
2. Motivated to study 2-3 months for 10 hours a week
3. Friendly :)

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Hey Guys,

I want to prepare for the DSA but lose motivation along the way. I feel having a group of similar minds, preferably with similar YOE would be of great help.

Can you please suggest a platform which is there to connect with other folks prepping for interviews? And is free of cost.

To group study & mock interviews

Hi, I'm a software engineer with close to 6 YOE. This is my second company and I feel pretty stagnant here working for 3 years and see no growth. I've started preparing. Is DSA still being asked in the interviews even for people with experience ? How many rounds are there usually and what is being tested? Your advice would be very much appreciated :)

Grinding DSA...Anyone up?

Software Developer

As a Software Engineer with 6+ years of experience, can you guys please guide me on preparation for DSA. Consider my current knowledge about DSA 0.

How should I start?
Approx how much time it will take?
How should I know what topics are more frequently asked at my level?
Any DSA plan for 0 to hero in DSA?

Apart from DSA I’m also preparing for HLD and LLD and I’d love to have recommendations from you folks about how to prepare these and where to prepare these from?

Also, if I’m missing something in my prep do let me know

DSA prep for interview

Hello I'm a data scientist with 7+ years of experience. I want to prepare for interviews in a slow and steady manner.

I need a person with whom I can discuss DS and practice mock interviews, someone who can keep me accountable for my progress and learning.

Here's what I'm thinking, we discuss a topic at the start of the week, prepare that topic during the whole week and then at the end of the week we sit down and discuss that topic.
We can also prepare different topics and teach each other or can dive into some whole new topic.

Other ideas are also welcome.
P.S - folks looking for immediate job change , please don't respond, i want it to prepare slow and also I'm a family man so sometimes I might postpone study sessions due to festivals/holidays.

If interested please contact me at - remotelute36@gmail.com

Looking for a study buddy for data science

Data Scientist

I have 6 YOE as QA. First 3 years I was into manual testing and now since past 3 years, I am an SDET with tech stack- python, pytest , playwright, selenium. I am planning for the job switch now. I have not used much of DSA in my work. However I understand DSA is a must to clear interviews. 

I need help in preparation. From where and How to start the preparation? 

Please update your strategies , so that it will be helpful for all those preparing for interviews.

Need help! DSA strategies!

Quality Assurance

I needed some help in coming up with a study plan to specifically train for Google's interview process. I currently have 4yoe, so I think the interviews will be for SDE2 role. There will be 3 DSA rounds, 1 Googleyness, and 1 Leadership round. I already have experience in DSA and have solved most of Neetcode 150 (except DP, Bit Manipulation, and some hard problems). If any of you have given Google (or any FAANG) interview before, I would love to get some guidance on how to prepare in 30 days. I already know most of the common algorithms like DFS, BFS, Sliding window, Binary search, etc so I won't have to start from scratch.

Also, the recruiter mentioned that I will have only 45 mins to solve two questions: mostly 1 hard and 1 medium. So I basically have around 20 mins per problem, which I feel is very difficult to solve a Leetcode Hard problem unless you have seen it before. Did I misunderstand the recruiter? Are there any tips on how to get good at this?

Got a call from a Google recruiter, have onsite interviews in 30 days

"Hello everyone! 
I'm looking for a mentor who can guide me in my journey to learn Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA). My goal is to land a job at a product-based company, and I believe having a strong foundation in DSA is crucial for success.

If you're experienced in DSA and have knowledge of the industry, I would love to learn from you. Please DM me or message here in comments if you're willing to mentor me and help me achieve my goals.

Specifically, I'm looking for guidance on:

- Creating a study plan for DSA
- Practicing problems and reviewing concepts
- Preparing for technical interviews
- Learning about the industry and product-based companies

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration! I'm excited to learn and grow with your guidance."

Can someone be my mentor?

Hi guys, I have been into development for almost 5+ yrs but had never been into DSA Preparation. As after such time I have been trying to learn DSa thoroughly but the topics seems very difficult some time or I forgot things had to visit again and again. These things making it very difficult to maintain consistency and regularity in learning. At times it feels to leave the thought of applying at faang. Have any solutions or similar issues?.

Its been difficult to stay on track for DSA!!

Product Manager

I am a full stack developer with 2.5 years of experience currently working at a global MNV. My current skill set includes java, angular, spring boot framework. 

I am planning for a switch. I read on the internet that to crack a MAANG or some company of that level you need to have a good understanding of Data Structures and Algorithms(DSA).

How to start with DSA preparation. I see there are a lot of resources. I feel overwhelmed by seeing all of them. 
Are there any good structured courses which teach DSA.

Senior Associate

Any company hiring without a DSA interview? Maybe a take home assignment or something like that? 
I do know some DSA from college time but am out of practice and have been working as a full stack dev for 3 years.

Anyone hiring?

Hey all, I feel so shit at the moment. I’ve failed 8-10 interviews so far, out of job since a year. It seems like every interview they ask a totally different set of questions or scenarios. Whatever I prepare gets me maybe 50-60% of the way, rest are all new questions and I fuck up or I’m not able to fully give them an answer.

What makes me feel even worse is that, lot of people aren’t even getting calls at the moment and here I am speed-running every single opportunity to failure. I’m so done at the moment. No idea how to proceed or what to prep.

Failing interviews

Do you work (upskill) every day or take Sunday (any 1 or 2 days) break per week. What are your thoughts on this?
