Ask HN: Programming job interview books?
I'm about to start interviewing for c++ programming jobs. I haven't been on a technical interview in 6 years. I'd like to start studying 1-2 problems each day, work through them and see what I know easily and what I don't. Even after 25 years of c++ I still get nervous about interviews. I read the Stroustrup and Meyers books when they come out and I tend to understand them.
I'd like a real, rubber hits the road book, preferably with solutions in c++.
- mindcrime 8y agoIf it were me, I'd probably consult Cracking The Coding Interview[1], and the Robert Sedgewick Algorithms in C++ [2][3] books. That and maybe spend some time practicing on Leetcode, Hacker Rank, Project Euler, etc. Skiena's Algorithm Design Manual[4] could also be good.
