## What is a Software Engineering coding interview?
Coding interviews are a form of technical interviews used to access a potential software engineer candidate's competencies through presenting them with programming problems. Typically, coding interviews have a focus on data structures and algorithms, while other technical rounds may encompass [system design](./system-design.md) (especially for middle to senior level candidates).

## How to best prepare for a coding interview?
LeetCode by itself is actually not enough to prepare you well for your coding interviews. Diving straight into LeetCode and thinking you can complete all of the thousands of questions is a bad use of your time and will never prepare you as well as a structured approach.

I have organized them into 1-pagers of the best study resources, best LeetCode questions to practice, and must-remembers (tips, corner cases) for every data structure and algorithm. They ensure that you internalize the most important concepts and get the most out of your preparation.

As such, you should always spend some time to craft an excellent self introduction and set of final questions to ask. When done well, these can leave a good impression with the interviewer that can turn things to your favor.
