Coding Interviews G U I D E eBook

If this is your first time preparing for a coding interview, you will be somewhat overwhelmed. You are nervous, and rightly so.

Interviewers will hurl questions at you, expect you to write clean code on a whiteboard, and ask you to create an algorithm right there

and then. Honestly, unless this is not your first coding interviewer, you should be nervous but think about this - everyone going for that

interview is in the same boat as you are.If you''ve done your homework, been through mock interviews, and practiced answering random questions until you are word perfect, you don''t have a lot to worry about, but there are some things you can do to help you:

Write Your Code on Paper - when you attend your interview, you likely won''t have a computer at your

disposal. Instead, most interviewers will require you to write your code on paper or a whiteboard. Write all your code by

hand on paper or invest in a whiteboard to prepare for this. Once you''ve done that, type your code into a computer exactly as you have written it. This serves two purposes - first, it prepares you for your interview environment, and

second, it will highlight any errors. It is far easier for a programmer to use a computer, and having to write on paper can be a bit of an eyeopener.
