Hey @iandouglas!! Thanks for suggesting this feature - it totally makes sense to me and would definitely be great to have! |
Thanks @seanprashad . This site yo'uve put together is FANTASTIC. I've given it out to my students at turing.edu as well as people that I coach on interviewing.io. Keep up the great work! |
That's incredible to hear @iandouglas!!! This site started out as a side-project back in the final year of my undergrad - I was frustrated with finding free resources for software engineering interviews and could not afford premium subscriptions/courses (as I come from a underprivileged family). My hope for this website is to continue supporting individuals from all over the world in their own interview prep journey and I intended to make sure it stays free, open, and unbiased for as long as I own it! |
Hey @iandouglas - looping back with fantastic news! An awesome contributor, @hiromik, submitted a patch which adds a new header section showcasing the patterns when selecting a company: I'll consider this issue solved with #113, but feel free to open a new issue if any problems arise! |
@hiromik this looks great, thanks for this!! Thanks @seanprashad for considering this idea, I think it'll be really useful for people to get an idea of things to study for a given company. |
As a user, if I choose a company from the list, I'd like to see a quick summary at the top of the kinds of problems known to be asked by that company, by frequency.
For example, if I pick Amazon from the list, having something at the top that says:
DFS: 26
,DP: 18
,Backtracking: 14
,BFS: 14
,Binary Search: 13
,Heap: 13
Arrays: 12
,2-pointer: 10
,Fast & Slow Ptrs: 8
,Trie: 8
etc
This would help, for example, to narrow down which kinds of problems to study for a given company based on frequency. In this case, I should study DFS/Dynamic Programming/Backtracking/BFS way more than I should study bit manipulation, if I'm intervieiwng at Amazon.
