I perform very poorly on coding interviews, I believe many people underperform in those interviews, but I feel like I am showing like 20% of what I got. In my last interview, the question was so simple that, I thought there must be a mistake, or tricky point, and spent a good 10 minutes for a question I would do in a minute, if it was not an interview.



I never explained this to interviewers, I am curious, is tackling with the stress is part of the interview, or should I explain upfront that I am terrible with interviews. In the latter case, I guess they will ask then, how can I show I am good.



So how can I show I that am a good coder? People say that contribute to github projects that I use daily, well there is not any software I use daily.

  • It is more for practicing whiteboard style questions so that you are prepared for them. Some people take it to the extreme just rote memorizing solutions but the point is mental preparation. I don't think blog posts have much to do with that
