Engineering the Engineering Interview - Problem Solving

Most candidates think “problem-solving” in interviews means solving the hardest problem. It’s not. It’s about how you approach problems - and what that approach tells your interviewer about how you think, communicate, and collaborate. In this episode of “Engineering the Engineering Interviews,” we break down the Problem-Solving Loop - the mental model that separates top performers from everyone else. After interviewing over 10,000 engineers, I’ve noticed that the best candidates don’t just “get the answer.” They drive the conversation. They turn the interview into a collaboration - and make the interviewer feel like they’re solving the problem together. Here’s what we’ll cover: 1️⃣ How to read questions out loud the right way - conversationally, not mechanically. 2️⃣ Why asking questions (and for examples) is your superpower. 3️⃣ How to build your own examples to clarify the problem before writing a single line of code. 4️⃣ How to make every interview feel like a coworker debugging session - relaxed, human, and productive. 5️⃣ The myth of the “perfect solution,” and why quick, pragmatic answers often win. 6️⃣ The simple, “The Martian”-inspired mindset for tackling dynamic programming problems. 7️⃣ Why should you treat all input as evil until proven otherwise? 8️⃣ How to think like a customer, not just a coder. 9️⃣ Why testing main cases before edge cases makes your reasoning clearer. 🔟 And how senior candidates naturally lead the problem-solving conversation. Forget rehearsing answers. Learn how to think, talk, and collaborate like the kind of engineer every team wants to hire. 🎥 Watch Episode 1 → [link to first video] 📩 Subscribe for upcoming episodes on system design, communication traps, and how interviewers actually evaluate your performance.
