The big day has finally arrived! Here are a few more pointers to help you master the live interview.

  • Inquire about the needs in detail. Please speak up if the question is not apparent to you. If you can apply a restriction on input, you may often substantially simplify a task.

  • Before you start coding, talk over your strategy. Remember, we are primarily interested in learning how you approach problem-solving, not just how you write code. We are interested in seeing how you come to real-world issues. Communicate; speak your thoughts aloud. Make it a team effort.

  • Ask a question if you are stuck. It is OK to speak up if you are unsure what to do next during the coding process.

  • It is acceptable to start with a simple, brute-force, sub-optimal solution and then iterate on it for time and space efficiency.

  • In the worst-case scenario, having something working that you can improve is preferable to having a preliminary version of the ideal solution.

  • If you have the time, come up with a primary test case and walk through it once you have written anything down. Take a minute to discuss how you would test your code, even if you do not have time to do an entire test run.
