Tech Interview Prep Guide by Speak_

In early 2022 I was a career switcher on the job search for a software engineering role. I had graduated from a coding bootcamp, taken coding courses, built projects, gotten certifications, and it was time to find a job. There were so many things to do. Build projects, read documentation, practice LeetCode, learn new languages and frameworks, connect with others on LinkedIn, reach out to hiring managers... it was overwhelming. I decided to join a Speak_ Tech Interview Prep cohort-based course because it promised an interview guide and prep practice, plus a chance to get seen by some partner companies like GoDaddy and Amazon. Before the course was over, I was recruited to join Speak_ itself! I quickly found myself responsible for improving the curriculum and running cohorts for hundreds of job-seeking engineers every month. I’ve been living and breathing this content for almost a year. I told @bryanlanders (Speak_ Co-founder) and @andreaguendelman (Speak_ CEO) about the open source content at the bootcamp I attended, Flatiron, and how awesome it was that participants could actively contribute to the content. We thought that was a great goal and worked hard over the past year to refine the guide. Today, we’ve open-sourced it and shared it with you! We hope you get a lot of value out of it and hope to see you in a future cohort.

Hello, Product Hunt friends! 😻 Happy holidays to you all. This week is all about thanks and giving, and that’s exactly what we’d like to do today. We’re grateful to everyone who has participated in our diverse community for software engineers over the past year. Tens of thousands of talented coders have joined a cohort, chatted with peers on our Discord server, or read and shared our newsletter. As a gift to our community - and anyone who may benefit from it - we’ve decided to open-source the guide which anchors our Tech Interview Prep cohort-based course! 💫 This content has gone through numerous iterations and has been battle tested by hundreds of engineers every month for a year. We’re excited to share it with you and we hope you’ll contribute to the code base if you have ideas on how to improve it. Lots of people are looking for new jobs with all that's going on in the tech hiring world, so we hope this helps people land safely in a new role that they love. Our mission is to give candidates, especially the underrepresented, access to the knowledge, networks, and opportunities to land the best job they’re qualified for. Help us toward achieving our mission by sharing this guide! 🗣️ Thank you for checking it out!

Excited to see this come to life and benefit others. Thanks to my team for making this happen.
