Are Coding Interviews ACTUALLY Broken‪?‬ DonTheDeveloper Podcast

    • Education

People are FRUSTRATED with the current state of coding interviews. Down with data structures and algorithm interviews! Why am I being tested ON THE SPOT in the interview, only to have my anxiety spike? Do hiring managers even know what the hell they’re doing!?

We’ve landed on a controversial topic for sure in this video! I brought on 2 hiring managers and put them on the spot with many of the common concerns I’ve heard about the interview process. One has extensive experience training and hiring in the startup world. One has a tremendous amount of experience doing the same at FAANG companies.

I think these 2 were the perfect people to bring on for this. I challenge them with many of these frustrations developers have. Both are VERY honest, so I hope you’re ready. They may challenge a couple of your assumptions about the hiring process. Try to keep an open mind during this episode. Enjoy!
