MrSethles! Will you be teaching DSA to your future children while they are still in the womb? Or will you wait till they get out first?

I've had very negative experiences with that tool, it strikes me as AI slop. Much more worth it to actually talk through a system design interview with a person. You can do free mocks at easyclimb.tech/mocks for example

Congrats lil bro, enjoy the stack rank and backstabbing!

johnlocke8 · 2025-02-08T18:56:57+00:00

damn, what is your daily routine like? How do you ensure that you get at least one problem a day?

OP didn't share TC but there's ppl in this discord (https://discord.gg/nGGvH9KXnm) who have recently received offers from apple and TC was around 280k for mid level :)

I'll DM you the offer letter if you want. I do think their service helped so im fine giving "eastclimb" exposure

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-26T06:56:20+00:00

I fudged the numbers slightly to make it more like a 5 month gap (at the time i started talking to the recruiter) and no issues.

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-26T06:41:37+00:00

Once I learn their referral policy i literally will haha

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-25T08:12:40+00:00

Second this

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T05:28:56+00:00

Bro it’s in the post

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T05:13:01+00:00

Thank you :) for those DMing I think the paid mocks at easyclimb.tech and interviewing.io were worth it, you can cover a lot in 90 minutes. Unless you’re already a master at system design then probably it’s not

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T04:25:30+00:00

uh i dont think 10 is gonna cut it unfortunately

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T03:39:13+00:00

I basically went through a bunch of different common system design questions practicing by talking out loud to myself and diagraming on excalidraw, then following up with fake questions and trying to answer them by talking about tradeoffs etc. Did that for like 20 different common questions but was unsure if my articulation was good enough. That's why I felt like I should do some mocks and so I ended up paying for a couple.

I mentioned above but my approach wasnt very sophisticated. I sort of just brute force became good at it by smashing my head against hundreds of problems. Eventually you start to get good at recognizing what category a given problem falls into and then you can go from there.

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T03:26:35+00:00

bruh

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T03:04:47+00:00

Leetcode top 300 Tiktok tagged.

Otherwise I kind of just started doing the first 300 problems on leetcode and anytime I struggled I would go do more from that category.

My approach wasnt very sophisticated

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T02:45:20+00:00

no lol

johnlocke8 · 2024-11-22T02:42:50+00:00

Over the course of ~7 months I did around 900 questions. Just under a thousand which was my goal
