Question 1

How do I know if I'm ready for a tech interview?

Accepted Answer

Readiness spans four areas: coding (you recognize patterns and can state complexity), system design (you can do capacity estimation and pick the right components), behavioral (you have rehearsed STAR stories and know the company's values), and logistics (you've done a timed mock recently and your setup is tested). If you're solid on most of these, you're close. This quiz scores all four and tells you which to prioritize.

Question 2

How long before an interview should I start preparing?

Accepted Answer

For FAANG-level roles, a realistic ramp is 6 to 8 weeks of consistent practice if you're already a working engineer — more if you're rusty on algorithms. The highest-return activities are timed mock interviews and reviewing the patterns behind problems rather than grinding volume.
