Presentation: How interviews ask coding interview questions

Abstract

Coding interviews (aka. whiteboard interviews, or programming interviews) are the primary tools used by Indeed and major tech companies (e.g. Google, Amazon, Facebook) to measure technical skills for potential employees. There are a lot of articles and talks to help interviewees prepare and perform well on the coding interview. However, not many of them share insight into how employers conduct coding interviews and their challenges.

This talk is mainly for companies/managers who want to improve their hiring, or persons who are inspired to be a good interviewers. Wanasit will share his insight on how Indeed (and other tech companies) designed their interviewing processes and trains interviewers, including their principles and challenges.

For the interviewees or students, this talk helps you understand the interviewer-side perspective, thus, helps you prepare for the next interviews. It also includes a few uncommon interviewing tips at the end.
