How the challenge works

  • Pick a level. Answer every question, then read the explanations — including the ones you got right.
  • This is not the interview notes journal. Long-form writeups stay on /interviews/.

Key concepts

Tradeoffs over trivia

Senior and staff prompts are about sequencing, contracts, and failure — not API memorization.

Common mistakes

  • Treating a quiz score as a level title.
  • Skipping the explanation when the answer was lucky.

Interview tips

  • Talk in systems: user, data, failure, cost.
  • If you do not know, say how you would find out in the first hour.
