The right way to hire is not four rounds of data structures and algorithms but work like the job, plus asking a candidate why they made each choice.

What NeetCode actually said

  1. NeetCode Naveed Singh, the software engineer behind NeetCode
    I'm not going to spend four interviews going through and asking somebody data structures and algorithm stuff. I just have them do work that might be similar to something I'd give them on the job or even just have a conversation with them. See how they think. Like can they think through trade-offs? I don't even care about what answer they give me to a problem. I care about like what's like why did they say that?
