Interview prep help

How do you people prepare for an interview while working at your current job ? It's my first time doing this as I previously only interviewed when I was out of job and was actively looking for one.

I get it – juggling interview prep while working can be tricky! Breaking down prep into manageable tasks can help. Small, consistent sessions, like a coding challenge during breaks or problem-solving practice, add up over time. Weekends can be used for deeper study.

For resources, TechLead and Kevin Naughton Jr. on YouTube have some great videos on interview prep. Books like Cracking the Coding Interview by Gayle Laakmann McDowell and Grokking the Coding Interview by Design Gurus are also highly recommended. Hope this helps!
