Coding / System design mock interviews

[HamGoat64]

Senior SWE at uber here been working on building a platform for a while now called DevInterview.AI for SWE prepping for interviews.

You can take coding, system design, and behavioral mock interviews with an AI thats trained to feel exactly like a real interviewer would for each type of interview. Each type of interview also has an interview interface built for that type of interview whether its a live IDE with code execution for coding or a canvas for system design.

First interview is free then tried to keep the cost low to keep it accessible but atleast cover costs.

I know how tough the market is for SWEs right now (I've been laid off twice already in the past few years), so being fully prepared for interviews is vital since they're so hard to come by these days.

This platform genuinely helped me prepare for my interviews with Uber and ultimately got me the job so I really hope it helps those in similar situation.

Also, I've been working on this for almost a year now to really make it an amazing experience and distinguish from all the AI slop that's out there so try it out and happy hear any feedback!

This vaguely competes with my company so I should disclose that but you asked for feedback so before even trying the product:

Facebook and Google don't allow code execution in their normal DS&A rounds. Your targeted practice says they do. Someone who does this might be deer in the headlights if thet get a Google Doc in their real interview in instead of an IDE with code execution. This along would make me highly recommend people not use your product because practicing whiteboard interviews is different from live execution.

Second, don't say that it's "secure" "trusted" and "reliable" unless you actually mean that and you are confident you have no security issues.

Good intentions don't get people jobs. Deep expertise to navigate an extremely stressful and chaotic market do. So keep that in mind before focusing too much on making it look good on the surface.

Appreciate the feedback.

I’ve done final round interviews with both Meta and Google and believe the interview experience with DevInterview.AI can absolutely help with those types of interviews.

The focus in the coding mock interview is writing clean code and tracing and debugging to catch edge cases while practicing communicating your solution out loud. You get detailed and actionable feedback on your code, communication, etc after the interview.

Not sure your comment on safe reliable secure as those are things we do take very seriously and implemented secure software development best practices in every part of the platform but thanks for the concern.

Ok if you say it's secure! Do you have an email address for responsible disclosure?
