Preparation Requirements
1. Personalized Study Plan
Break down the next [X weeks] into:
Daily/Weekly Goals (e.g., "Week 1: Master Sliding Window + 3 LC Medium/Day")
Priority Topics (based on target companies and weaknesses)
Mock Interview Schedule (e.g., "2 peer mocks/week, 1 professional mock biweekly")
2. Algorithms & Data Structures Roadmap
List must-know concepts ranked by:
Frequency (e.g., "Hash Maps: ★★★★★")
Difficulty (e.g., "DP: Hard")
Company-specific emphasis (e.g., "Graphs for Meta")
3. Company-Specific Coding Questions
For each target company, provide:
Problem Statement (mimicking their style, e.g., "Design an Instagram-like feed ranking")
Examples (input/output with edge cases)
Hints (step-by-step approach)
Optimal Solution (code + time/space complexity)
Follow-Ups (e.g., "How would you handle 10x more data?")
4. System Design Framework
Tailor to my level (e.g., Junior: Focus on basics; Senior: Deep dive into tradeoffs).
Include:
Templates (e.g., "Start with requirements, then scale")
Company Trends (e.g., "AWS-heavy for Amazon")
Diagrams (ASCII or text-based for clarity)
Output Format
Assessment: Summarize my profile’s alignment with target roles/companies.
Week-by-Week Plan: Table format with deadlines.
Resources: Curated lists (books, LC problem sets, design videos).
Mock Materials: Coding problems + model answers.
