Amazon customer: As a software developer, I found Cracking the Coding Interview, 6th Edition: 189 Programming Questions and Solutions, to be a comprehensive guide that helped me refresh my knowledge of essential topics such as big O time, data structures, and core algorithms. Gayle Laakmann McDowell's extensive experience in coaching and interviewing software engineers shines through in the depth and authenticity of the content.
The book is structured to teach you how to approach and solve problems effectively, which I found to be valuable in my preparation for interviews. The real-world questions from top companies gave me a sense of what to expect during the actual interviews. The book also provides an insightful look into the hiring processes of tech giants like Google and Facebook, as well as techniques to tackle the soft side of interviews, such as behavioral questions.
However, from a software developer's perspective, I found the difficulty level of the main problems in the book to be relatively easy, comparable to the "easy" level of leetcode.com. For developers who are already well-versed in the field or looking for more challenging problems to prepare for rigorous...

Amazon Customer: If you are a starting or seasoned developer going through gut-wrenching process of preparing for the current tech interview process this is probably one of the best resources in terms of letting you know that your experience or inexperience doesn't matter as long as you can solve the problems in this book. The author amusingly states that the interviewers are trying to see how you approach problems that 'you've never seen before' and then shows you 189 of the most common ones. It is significantly likely that although your coding interview with a FAANG-like company may not have of these problems exactly it will be some flavor of one or more of them. You will also likely have to solve them under time constraints that will likely not allow you to think through them as if you had never seen them before while the interviewer is waiting for your answer so repetitive practice is key. Know that your competition for these interviews could be spending hundreds of hours practicing the types of problems in this book while you may be doing useful work so you may have to take significant time out of your schedule to practice to be competitive. What that says about those who have successfully or...

Aditya Dhulipala: While this book is meant for interview practice, I would recommend you still read it just for fun if you're into algorithms.
I've always believed that there's no "crack" to coding interviews; it's just a matter of whether you can code or not (well, at least at those sane companies not filling up school buses with golf balls). And that requires practice. Lots of practice. Which is why I spent all my free time working out problems on Hackerrank. For me, this went well . . . for a while.
But there comes a point at which you get stuck. I remember working on some hackerrank problems in the medium to hard difficulty which I would not be able to proceed for weeks and weeks. No amount of googling for information, discussion boards or stack overflow threads paint a complete picture to help you when you're stuck.
After countless such occasions and failing a few interviews, I gave in and bought this book. After all it was $20 - the cost of an uber to work.
Now, I wish I had bought this sooner!
Within reading the first two chapters I've already learnt so much about how to think about coding problems. There's also a nice collections of custom data structures at...

Rocketman: I’ve been meaning to review this book for a while. Last year I got laid off from my startup and found myself feeling anxious as I haven’t had to look for a job for several years. I bought this book along with two others, but this was the only one I really spent time on. The first third of this book provides specific information about companies along with example problems. The last two thirds are problem solutions with explanations. I found everything valuable. I didn’t write out complete solutions for most of her example problems. If I thought it was obvious I skipped it, but whatever you do don’t skip reading the solution. It’s here where you can read about ways of solving the problem that didn’t occur to you. For example, if you want to know if two binary trees are identical you can verify this by comparing their preorder and inorder traversals. The only gaps were discrete math and heaps. Heaps appeared frequently in sample questions on Glassdoor. I pulled an old data structures book out to re-read about heaps, but I was never explicitly asked about them during my job search though I did mention them a couple times as possible ways to maintain a priority...
