Weeks 1–3 · Patterns
The handful that cover most questions.
The programs, in detail
Four programs of 8 to 12 weeks, built around timed mock interviews every week.
Program 01 · Out loud, under time
Coding rounds
The code matters less than the process around it. We work on clarifying the question before starting, narrating your reasoning, choosing a workable approach rather than the perfect one, stating complexity honestly, and recovering out loud when you hit a wall — which interviewers specifically watch for.
Weeks 4–6 · Narration
Thinking out loud without rambling.
Weeks 7–8 · Under time
Forty-five minutes, watched.
Weeks 9–10 · Recovery
Getting unstuck in front of someone.
Weeks 1–3 · Structure
A repeatable way to open any design question.
Weeks 4–6 · Components
Storage, caching, queues and when each earns its place.
Weeks 7–9 · Trade-offs
Defending a choice without overclaiming.
Weeks 10–12 · Mocks
Full design rounds, reviewed.
Program 02 · Reasoning, not memorizing
System design
Design rounds reward structured thinking over memorized architectures. We work on gathering requirements, making rough estimates out loud, sketching components, and discussing trade-offs honestly — including admitting what you don't know, which lands far better than bluffing.
Program 03 · Stories with substance
Behavioral rounds
Behavioral rounds sink more candidates than coding does. We build a set of real stories from your experience, structure them so the outcome is clear, and rehearse the follow-up questions — especially the conflict and failure ones, where vague answers are obvious.
Weeks 1–2 · Your material
Six stories worth telling.
Weeks 3–4 · Structure
Situation, action, outcome, in two minutes.
Weeks 5–6 · Follow-ups
The second and third question.
Weeks 7–8 · Hard ones
Conflict, failure and gaps.
Weeks 1–2 · The pipeline
Several processes, timed to land together.
Weeks 3–4 · Take-homes
Scoping them before they scope you.
Weeks 5–6 · Offers
Questions to ask, and how to buy time.
Program 04 · The last mile
Process & offers
The end of a search has its own problems: overlapping timelines, take-homes that eat weekends, and an offer you have four days to answer. We plan the process, scope take-homes sensibly, and prepare the compensation conversation — though contracts and legal questions go to an attorney.
