One thing about reverse engineering questions -- I think calling it that is a bit of a misnomer. This whole guide IS about reverse engineering the questions. Reverse engineering the questions is essentially knowing that the questions are looking for signal on communication, collaboration, your passions and verifying your history. With that knowledge, I've reverse engineered the questions to answer them with this framework in mind and making sure my answer showcases all those things. What you actually mean is that you shouldn't lie and think that the questions are trying to trick or mislead you in a way. You shouldn't take massive credit for things or not be self critical. However, I think it's okay to embellish a few details (there is a limit though), because the interviewer obviously cannot verify this.

If you can remove the background music...

This is really great content! Any chance we can get it in a podcast format?

such a great video! watching this for the third time and learning new things each time

I've bombed the last two technical interviews I had, and whether ironic or not, it was because they posed coding scenarios using a framework I haven't touched in years. It's so frustrating and has me seriously wondering why I'm even applying for a new job.

Is it Simon Stalenhag art on your desktop?

The best material on behavioural interview for engineers I've ever seen. So much valuable information, zero nonsense. Thank you, kind person 🙂

System design between l5 and l6, behaviour- not hire. It’s not a good idea to say truth during the interview 😢

@jackson-gabbard I was loging for your come back. I was hoping : Could you kindly put up another video on a) Behavioural Questions in FAANG for 15-20yrs for SDE3/Principal Architect might face + b) how would you respond to those Questions ....please🙏

Worth Watching an hour .... Denfintely useful !!!

Beginning of this video is super cringe, but it's actually good

This was 8 years ago? Bro was way ahead of his time!

The best guideline for behavioral interviews. Hands down. Fantastic job. Thank you thank you thank you.

Facebook recommended me to watch your videos.

Thanks!

Could you make video on ML design interviews as well? Your behavioral interview and system design interview videos are awesome. This clarifying questions part is common with ML design interview too, so its definitely helpful.

Hi from Russia ))

When you ask GPT to calculate the answer, it divides 100 KB of the image by the assumed 10 mbps bandwidth and comes up wth an 80 seconds result. That's some next level bullshit. Adam is right, the tin can is wrong, move on, nothing to see here.

you need to know how to be a good liar, it's a skill, it's an art.

The user facing questions seems to be more a Product system design, than backend architecture design?

Been on both sides. I've made all five mistakes and have been interviewed by people who've made all five mistakes. Would be nice to know how to handle interviewers who made all five as an interviewee lol

Sometimes the interviewer sucks and its okay to acknowledge that

Thank you) Careem HR sent your channel to me like a one of guidelines)

47:04 deserves corporal punishment for headphone listeners

great episode thanks a lot

Thank you for covering so many aspects with relatable anecdotes. I would probably have to re-watch it to fully get the essence and importance of behavioral interviews.

I was told the technical interview round would cover different topics like system design, streaming data & data modeling. Yet only asks one Python & one SQL. Failed interview bc I had limited prep time (also lowkey burnt out).

Be genuine in a job interview - the worst advice I've ever heard

So all missteps are 100% our fault? Circumstances never matter? In fact, if someone even mentions them, no matter their strengths they’re out? Yeah, no. That’s a major red flag. You’re the problem here, not the candidate. Thankfully that ancient culture is dying

Author thinks that interviewers are gods 😂and know everything. I can trick them easier than drinking a cap of tea and they will never notice that

"sucky interview sucks", mind blown

You keep making a brand new copy of `group`, which is expensive (O(len(group))) and I don't think you account for it in your complexity analysis. If you're going to do it this way, it would be much better to mutate and unmutate a single group object.

I appreciate this video but I think you are a rat, or at least doing the rats work by handling all these behavioral interviews, It seems you enjoy them, how on earth can you enjoy doing this stupid stuff like you were a female trying to disqualify men from having sex with her on a date. that's what you are to me, a female rat detective doing the holy rats work.

Interviewers are super villians. This makes sense. Thank you! :)

Great content thank you! Wish there was a way to remove the music track.

mate, please keep doing this crazy good content, I bag you!🙂

This is an amazing explanation of how to define the scope of the system design problem. Keep up the good work. If you could make similar video for coding interview to guide how to navigate through it. It would be really helpful. Thank you.

background music is annoying

Jason Stathum from action hero to Software engineering he learned everything huge respect :P

It is a shame you don't make videos like these anymore. You are much more didactic than the tops G's on youtube on this topic.

sorry but the music is so so so so so so annoying and distracting

Good to see you again Jackson! Don’t feel bad about mentioning a valuable product for others to check out :)

As someone who's both conducted and been apart of hundreds of tech interviews, this is probably the best video resource explaining how behavioral interviews work (and should work) and expectations.

The Anthony Fantano of tech interview videos.

if i want to contact you how can I?

can you remove the background music?

I heard only the music
