A word of caution to people who watch this video: it really only applies to a narrow band of companies. Do your research. Study and prep only as much as needed for for your selected employers. If it’s FAANG, fine, listen to Utsav. If it’s for your local web dev shop, you’ll probably waste a lot of time and leave money on the table by not applying sooner. Keep learning and keep building and good luck out there!

This is 100% accurate. This is the trend almost exclusively for big tech. Smaller companies or start ups have a very different approach to interviews. Big tech generally treats their hires as investments, and they have a large hiring budget, so they can wait for months (if not years) for their hires to materialize their potential. For most other companies, they want you to be immediately effective, so it’s not about potential but how quickly you can get up and running. Thanks for pointing it out, Albert.

A major factor that is left-out of this discussion is the "opportunity cost" payed by candidates for investing months/years into specializing in dealing with this standardized process, as oppose to spending that same time/energy into far more productive and relevant directions for their career develpment overall. It is very likly to be an overall net-loss for candidates if the opportunity cost is factored in, considering that much of that investment is really only relevant for this interviewing-process itself, typically being mostly forgotton the moment they land a job. It's the exact same story with standardized testing, it is an approach that optimized much more in service of the party that needs to filter, at the expence of the party being filtered. Also once a target is being measured specifically, it often leads to overspecialization into mastering it by candidates, leading to hires of candidates that had excelle in that process "at the expense" of investing in their ability to provide high value once hired. There's a conflation between "standardization" and "objectivity": Just because a measuring process is "standardized", doesn't make it "objective". We can all "agree" on what "signal" was provided by an interview, all the while having that signal poorly correlated/indicative of a strong hire and not realizing that we're measuring the wrong thing so that "agreement" about the "measurment" is irrelevant and we're not aware of that. Anyone interseted in what an actually better interviewing process for all parties might look like, take the time to see a demonstration of that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZfciKmAmdh3iKs

My problem is I tend to forget easily. When I’m not actively recalling concepts (DSA) and studying things I need for work, such as a technology within our tech stack or another to solve a problem, I forget concepts in DSA over time. And when an interview offer comes up, I panic because I haven’t been proactively studying DSA, I’ve been learning something else. I try to study one thing at a time, too. When I try to do a bunch of these things at once, I don’t honor my health and myself and I get super burnt out and my health takes a bit. I try to knock one thing out at a time, but I don’t wanna spend so much time on software engineering. I love it, but I have other interests too and I wanna spend time with family. It’s such a balancing act. I am willing to time and task manage, but I get super obsessed/stressed (more of a personal problem) when something doesn’t go to plan or something comes up and puts me behind schedule. Anyone have experience with this and have any suggestions?

It’s not that tech interviews are unfair, but you have to wonder why everyone at these Silicon Valley companies all look the same and share the same mindset of the world. The process in which they evaluate “successful” candidates is all the same so you end up getting a monoculture. Step outside the valley or FAANG in general and interviews are nothing like this. I’ve been doing this for close to 25 years across a variety of industries and the rest of the world is nothing like this. The only ones outside Silicon Valley that follow this mindset are startups who want to believe they are the next FAANG company. Just saying not all interviews are the Mike Tyson fight. There are an awful lot of BTS dance party interviews out there.

What is interesting to me is the fact that so many people are now studying for coding interviews. My articles on this have hit 150k views, AlgoExpert has had over 100k paying subs, I'm sure your videos on this have done well, Leetcode has tons you users etc etc. So it's very unlikely that people will come across problems they haven't seen before in an interview. How do you think interviews will change to reflect that? Will they just get harder? More specific questions? Behavioral? I'd be interested in your thoughts because you've actually been involved in the hiring process

Old coder here. I have mixed feelings about tech interviews, but overall I'm still very dissatisfied with them. The bottom line is simply this: the correlation between performance in the interviews and job performance is weak. It's even weaker when you consider that the people doing the hiring and promotion fit in well with the existing system, which makes it difficult to detect a problem with the existing system. If fairness, the process does seem to be improving, and it's a tough task in general. The best thing I've noticed about tech interviews is that it detects non-coders who somehow managed to have a good resume. So I'm not completely against tech interviews, but I also don't place a lot of value on them.

Middle aged coder here, and I agree. My experience is that when a company wants a mid-senior level dev to complete a college textbook problem in their interview (palindrome detectors, etc.) you don't want to work there.

At the very least, it's the best tool we currently have, even if it isn't that great in reality.

@@nakamuii The most careful & data-backed sources I know of are the studies done by Laszlo Bock, back when he was the head of HR at Google. He solidly refuted the value of "brain teaser" questions, despite their long history at tech companies. He also cast plenty of data-backed doubts on at least some forms of coding tests. There have been other studies, but a search for "Laszlo Bock" is a good starting point. As to why bad practices persist, one factor is that it's been easier to prove that a method is bad than find a verifiable alternative. Another seems to be that the people doing the interviews tend to do whatever they went through when they were hired, even after reading that it doesn't work.

My only problem is that it takes too long and creates burn out. Its mental gymnastics really. It shouldn't take a month to figure out if someone is a good fit and extend an offer. It shouldn't be longer than 2 weeks tops. Thats why i recommend starting off at start ups and smaller/mid sized companies before going straight for FAANG. Its best to go for faang when you already havee a job. FAANG & top tech companies, their process is very long and time consuming. It can be 1 month or 2 months. But the worst part is doing everything right or what you're supposed to do and still dont get an offer. All the blood, sweat, & tears through grueling 1-2 month long interviews and the mental gymnastics, go for nothing. That feeling creates burn out. Hear all these stories of applying to over 300 jobs before getting an offer. To me, it requires decent interview skills but the biggest factor is luck. Luck plays a huge part of the process. Be lucky you got a easy question, or a good interviewer and they liked you, or the process was smooth. But if you're getting only 1 offer out of 300 jobs you applied for, there's something wrong. To me ppl should be getting, at least these days for every 10 offers you should get at least 3. Theres something wrong w/ your resume and didnt tailor it to match keywords.

And I'm not counting myself out either, just give it a few more years :) But, you need the fundamentals to be a "power user" (didn't want to say "rockstar") engineer so I still agree that the fundamentals are important.

If you are a developer, you know there is much more than what some KZbinrs depict. Its not all just code. Its also about stepping out of your comfort zone and constantly evolving. I believe there could be a better way to test a person technically while achieving the same goal of finding a candidate with good problem solving skills but more than that. :) I love the videos

Interviews in tech have become firing squads of 3-4 ppl asking easy to wild questions. Of course it is fair as it happens to each candidate but that as far "fair" goes. If you can't remember everything you have learned (taking notes as you learn) them your out of luck. But the same ppl conducting interviews still have to research things in their job and most have not created an application from the ground up that really did anything so you have a bunch of "coasters" that have great memory. Woop te dew!! That doesn't show leadership, acumen nor real-world problem solving. And this is why the tech industry is always putting out fires, getting hacked, losing data, etc. But the interviews as they are should catch things like that, right? Nope that's not what the interviews are for, it's a hazing ritual. So why not give prospects problems to work on at home with the caveat that they have to explain step-by-step the pros and cons of their choices? Oh because they will look up answers! But what do the current staff of devs do, they look up answers to their problems to find a perfect solution. Same difference, IMHO. It is amazing how the code reviews work in companies as most do not really review anything they just sign off and pull it, no questions asked.

I think the best advice is TOTALLY AVOID companies who use these types of interview techniques! I worked for them for 20yrs!! TOTAL WASTE OF TIME! Go work for a company that actually has valuable for you to do and experienced engineers to help you grow!! AVOID these big firms packed with research students and glorified academics hahahaha find a company with real work for you to do and REAL engineers who can mentor you!
