What was the biggest challenge you were facing?
The system design interview.
How did IGotAnOffer help you?
I used the site to get tips for system design, and then I did mock system design interviews. I also practiced behavioral questions and in general, gained confidence going into the interviews.
Do you have any advice for other candidates?
Read a lot of material so that you know in advance what to expect more or less in the interview (the fact that an interviewer can surprise you with a question does not mean that you cannot know what the structure of the interview is going to be).
Also, practice a lot offline all the professional parts that you can practice on your own (Leetcode style).
Finally, I recommend the IGotAnOffer platform because there is something unique about the experience of "standing" in front of an interviewer. I think that being interviewed before the actual interview with the type of questions that are asked at the top companies, makes you arrive much more prepared.
