Interview prep & tips

Preparation is not about studying everything. It is about studying the right things in the right order with the time you have.

I have been through interviews at Amazon, Goldman Sachs, PayPal, and several others. I know what actually comes up, what gets skipped in real interviews despite being on every prep list, and how to structure your preparation so you are not still cramming the night before.

This is a 45-minute session to build your personalised interview prep plan — not a generic checklist, but a structured approach based on your current level, your target role, and your timeline.

What we cover:

• Gap analysis — Where you actually are vs where you need to be for your target role
• What to prioritise — Java internals, system design, DSA, behavioural, or a mix — in the right order for your timeline
• What to skip — Topics that look important but rarely show up for your level or target company
• Resources that work — Specific books, problems, and practice approaches, not a dump of every resource on the internet
• A week-by-week plan — Concrete and realistic, built around your schedule

Who this is for:

Engineers who have an interview coming up in 2–8 weeks and do not know where to start, or who have been preparing but feel like they are spinning without making real progress.

What you will leave with:

A clear, written prep plan you can follow from the next day — not just notes from a conversation.
