A few notes.
No tutorials. No clickbait. Just a few things I'm slowly learning from work, from stumbles, and from people met along the way.
A few notes on Big Tech culture — and how I learned not to get swept away
Not an interview playbook. Just a few personal observations on the culture of large tech companies — and the things that helped me stand on my own feet when I was new.
Why I started EngineerPro
Nothing grand. I just struggled with technical interview rounds for a while, and I'd like the people coming after to struggle a little less.
Shadowing an interview — and meeting a former student again
There are moments when years of teaching suddenly feel very meaningful. For me, that was sitting quietly while a former student passed a System Design round right in front of me.
Behavioral interview — the small part that's easily underrated
I keep meeting candidates who code really well and handle system design fine, but still lose the offer at the behavioral round. A few very personal observations, hopefully useful.
