Discussion: Algorithms and Interviews
summary
A panel discussion about coding interviews and algorithms covers what coding interviews are, why algorithms matter, which companies insist on algorithm tests (including FAANG differences between backend and frontend), and how solutions are evaluated. Panelists mention practice resources like LeetCode and other training options, share personal experiences (including a homebrew story and cracking the coding interview), and discuss other interview stages that cause trouble—behavioral questions, SMART goals, and architecture design.
