top 100 30 day?

[modest needle]

yes!

I only did 30 days when prepping and got all 30 days too :))

[clear cairn]

Did you do all 100

Thinking of doing just 70

Also grats

[modest needle]

I think I did 80% of them but focused mainly on recognizing patterns and being able to crack them

[coral stirrup]

What would u say were the big patterns im seeing sliding window, bfs/dfs traversals and heap Qs what else would you say

[modest needle]

I got prefix sum, topological sort (hint: it’s a hard problem with graph), binary tree, and two pointers

[coral stirrup]

That topological sort problem was crazy

[odd coral]

alien D?

that’s crazy

[modest needle]

but every question came with a slight modification, not just a copy paste from lc 🙂

[coral stirrup]

Any tips for behavioral mines I’m thinking of having a few stories and tieing them to core values

[wicked stump]

lc hard 💀

[clear cairn]

they said if you need a hint its over is that true

[modest needle]

prepare for the “tell me about a time when…” type of questions

i had a doc where i wrote down all scenarios and stories using the star approach and memorized my answers (also make sure to tie your answers to the experiences on your resume!)

i hope it helps

[coral stirrup]

Appreciate this boss🫡

[modest needle]

not really, i struggled with my hard problem for the first 5 mins and my interviewer gave me a hint that it was a graph problem using graph terminology and then I figured it out

@modest needle What start dates did they give u?

[modest needle]

You can start every other Monday after January 6 (including). I chose Jan 6 because I already graduated
