I applied for a job as a software developer in an IT company. The next step in the recruitment process after the first interview is a programming interview. This programming interview is said to include a programming-related puzzle to be solved during the interview. What would be the best ways to prepare for such an interview? What experiences do you have of programming interviews?

    Theres also exercism.org they have equally weird texts/branding and questionable privacy policy but at least they don’t have the commercial aspect.

      I had never heard of exercism, but I love it so far. I’d still recommend leetcode for preparing for a job interview, though.

      Leetcode is a bunch of one-off programming challenges like you’d find on a test, it is designed to get you ready for a job interview not to teach you the fundamentals of programming. Exercism is series of learning exercises that build on each other, it is intended to teach newbies the fundamentals and to provide practice while learning a new language.
