Practice. I bought a whiteboard, mounted it on the wall, and practice questions from interviewcake as if I were in front of a live audience. It feels kind of silly, but definitely helped me improve recall under the pressure of an interview. Putting yourself in an environment that most closely resembles the stress of the real thing to induce some or all of the anxiety is paramount!
Repeating this exercise at least once daily has produced real results for me, and helped me get comfortable thinking and speaking about algorithms outside of my normal operating environment (i.e. in front of a keyboard ;).
- wavesounds 10y agoI've gone through all the questions on that website at least twice many of them three times with a whiteboard, I'll try putting it on the wall. Like I said though I knew that I had done this question before and knew how to do it. Just like I knew that (x > 0 || x < 0) is the same thing as (x != 0). I think its the actual being in front of a stranger part that I need to practice most.

Do you think going through all the questions on Interviewcake prepared you well for interviews? I've been going through them and I either find them to be very easy, or very hard. Not much in between. Actually, come to think of it, that's usually how interview questions go for me, too.
