I usually think in silence, and alone.
- karmakaze 5y agoThat's fine too. Often if I'm thinking out loud it's for the benefit of the interviewer so they don't get bored or confused later when I write a bunch of stuff after a long period of silence. I also tend to do a lot of scribbling of intermediate picture/thoughts that I wipe and redo so it's not a complete void. Where it can penalize you is if you don't finish and not having talked/shown your work to that point doesn't count for as much. The best tech interview is if you describe the strategy, algorithm outline and datastructures that you would be using and the interviewer says, "that's good enough, next question".
