THE PROBLEM

Why Your Problem Solving Process Falls Apart in Coding Interviews

Lack of a Structured Approach

Without a systematic process, you may dive into coding without fully analyzing the problem, leading to rushed and often incorrect solutions under interview pressure.

Interview Anxiety

The pressure of being observed and evaluated can make your mind freeze, making it difficult to recall strategies or structure your approach during critical moments.

Poor Pattern Recognition

In the heat of the moment, you might struggle to identify which algorithmic patterns apply, wasting valuable time and energy on the wrong solution path.

Ineffective Practice Methods

Relying on memorized solutions rather than understanding core principles means you can’t adapt when faced with new or unexpected interview challenges.

Weak Implementation Skills

Even with a solid strategy, pressure can lead to coding errors and incomplete solutions. Building speed and accuracy is key to executing your ideas flawlessly.

Lack of Feedback Loop

Without regular expert feedback, you continue repeating the same mistakes, reinforcing bad habits that sabotage your performance during interviews.

THE SOLUTION

Master a Systematic Problem Solving Approach

AlgoCademy has developed a proven system to fix your broken problem-solving process. We've analyzed countless coding interviews to pinpoint exactly where candidates go wrong and built a curriculum that addresses these critical failure points.

AlgoCademy is perfect for you if:

You panic when faced with unfamiliar problems, even though you eventually grasp the solutions once the pressure subsides

You struggle to clearly articulate your thought process while solving problems in interviews

You frequently make implementation errors or run out of time during high-pressure interview scenarios

You've practiced for months but can’t consistently conquer medium-level algorithmic challenges

You need a structured, step-by-step approach that guides you through complex problems even under pressure

“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

Senior Software Engineer at 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

Software Engineer at 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!”

Frequently Asked Questions

So, you have questions? Let us try to answer those for you...

Will this system fix my problem solving process during interviews?

Yes! Our proven method addresses the most common pitfalls that derail your process, equipping you with the strategies needed to perform consistently under pressure.

I've never studied Computer Science. Is AlgoCademy beginner friendly?

Beginners welcome! While we do assume a very basic general understanding of how computers store variables and loops, you don’t have to worry about anything else. You’ll learn the rest here. It’s also going to be easier than you think!

The original inspiration for AlgoCademy came from helping a friend who quit his job as a singer to follow his dream. We’ve always had beginners and self-taught programmers in mind (as well as CS majors) while building our content. We can meet you on your level and take you from there!

Is all of the content available straight away or is it time-released (drip fed)?

No drip-feeding here! You get access to everything inside AlgoCademy right away. Jump in and start making use of the training without having to wait for something to be released to you. We also regularly update and add new material, so your content library will continue to grow alongside your knowledge.

What languages do I need to know?

You do not need to know any specific language to benefit from our lessons. Our explanations focus mostly on core intuition and pseudocode so that every coder out there, no matter the language, will understand everything.

Why should I become a member today instead of waiting?

Every day you hold off on membership is another day you’re not working toward your dream job. It’s time for you to take action. We provide the answers to all of your questions, including the ones you don’t know you have yet, that will pave the way to a high-paying programming job. Becoming a member will help you find the support, community, and most importantly, accountability necessary to reach your goals.

AlgoCademy is the place where you can find all of these things. If you are ready to make a difference in your life, the time is now. Simple as that.

Is it really worth the money?

The average base salary of a software engineer is $110,464, according to Indeed, and the average total compensation for FAANG companies is over $250k, according to levels.fyi.

The better you perform in your interview, the more desirable you become, therefore giving you the power to negotiate compensation. You’ll also get to work at your dream job every day alongside top-tier software engineers. It’s hard to put a number on all of that, but we think it’s worth it.

Do you offer refunds?

We don't offer refunds under any circumstance. You can try out our free coding tutorials before deciding to subscribe.

What happens if I decide to cancel my membership?

Obviously, we’d love it if all of our members stuck around forever. We’ve worked with students for long enough to know that it’s never going to happen. If we’ve done our job right, we should be saying goodbye to our students as they go off to start their new careers.

If you decide to cancel, we’ll miss you, but we make the process easy. You can cancel with 2 clicks of a mouse.

If there’s anything at all that you’re not certain about, anything we haven’t made clear, or you have any concerns or questions, please contact us at email address.We’re happy to help you out!
