After going through all the lessons, I gained the necessary skills to perform well at my on-sites. I crushed even the DP problems, which were my biggest fear. And thanks to that I landed offers from Microsoft and Uber. Thank you AlgoCademy!
Cristina Radulescu Landed offers from Microsoft and Uber
AlgoCademy really helped me improve my problem solving skills and write incredibly clean code. I was worried it wouldn’t be done in time for my coding interviews, but the way the curriculum is structured made me progress very quickly. Thanks for your work!
Connor Holland Student story · Vanguard
Wow. I've been using AlgoCademy for a while and now I can finally solve coding questions on my own. This gave me the confidence I needed for my interviews, and guess what? I landed the offer at Samsung! You guys truly kick ass. High fives!
