I don't study for interviews any more. I figure as I continuously improve my Computer Science and Mathematics fundamentals it will just happen naturally. So yeah I've been to final at Google, Amazon, and now Facebook, but I probably won't get a job offer for another year or so. Their loss though :)

I've never studied for an interview but I don't see any correlation between being able to smash the technical tests and getting hired. In fact I think that often scoring 100% on the technical has hurt me because they believed my ability outscopes the role they're hiring for. (though they won't hire me for a senior role because I'm too young, eurgh.) EDIT: In fact I think the best correlated factor has been applying for jobs where I'm apparently not qualified enough, the companies that decide to interview me anyway are: - Willing to assess me not $YEAR - $GRADUATED - Struggling for candidates

  Serious Advice: Remove the graduation date from your resume. Most companies at an institutional level don't care when you got your degree so long as you have one. Specific people might care if it comes up but not enough to make a point of it. They're generally perfectly happy to hire you based on your interview performance.
