On the way to find a job as a programmer, the "eight papers" interview question is always an unavoidable topic. I heard that programmer Yupi created an interview question and answer website - Interview Duck, which makes people think: Can you successfully pass the interview and get an offer just by memorizing an eight-legged essay? The answer seems to be no.
Just like an interviewer I once met, when asked about the difference between arrays and linked lists, the interviewer could skillfully recite that arrays are based on continuous memory blocks, etc., but when asked further about the time complexity of array queries, Even lower space. When asked about limitations, CPU affinity, etc., I just don't know. This shows that the more senior development positions are, the more attention is paid to understanding the underlying problems and the need for ideas to solve the problems. If you just memorize things by rote and don't understand them, you won't be able to respond flexibly when you actually encounter a problem. But this kind of question often appears in interviews, so people call it "eight articles." Because of this, the author is very curious about the interview question brushing tool launched by Yupi at this time. Is it unique or just a question bank to collect and summarize information? Does it affect the interview? With these questions in mind, the author launched a comprehensive evaluation.
Interview Duck performs well in terms of ease of use. It has both a web client and a small program, which can meet the needs of programmers to answer questions anytime and anywhere. Its categories and tags are extremely rich, covering front-end, back-end, programming language, database, cache, operation and maintenance, scenario questions, postgraduate entrance examination preparation and other fields. In addition, the question bank is constantly being enriched and updated. In just two weeks, the number of questions increased from more than 3,000 to more than 5,000. This shows that its update speed is very fast. Most popular and novel interview questions can be found in the question bank. The quality deserves recognition.
However, in terms of interaction, I think there is still room for optimization. Currently, the interaction with Interview Duck is relatively simple. You can click on a category to select a topic and then search. Although there is already a route to answer the problem, it may be further optimized. For example, when a new user logs in and fills out a questionnaire, the system will score the system based on the results of the questionnaire, then recommend a personalized route to answer the questions and guide the user to follow that route. The author hopes that this feature can be adopted, and also encourages readers to leave messages and interact in the barrage if they think this idea is good.
In order to test the quality of the answers, the author randomly selected several questions. Generally speaking, the answers to the questions are more serious and the content is more colloquial and not difficult to understand. However, due to the randomness of topic selection, the data has certain limitations. The author strongly recommends that everyone experience it for themselves and make their own judgment.
The question bank of Interview Duck is divided into two types: free and paid. Considering that starting a business in Yupi requires payment of employee wages, server fees, database maintenance, website security and other expenses, this payment model is reasonable. The key is whether consumers feel they get value for money.
At first, the author tried to use F12 to check whether the payment issue simply judged the VIP mark to display the content, but found that the payment issue did not return relevant information, which shows that the website did a good job in protecting the payment issue. content. After that, the author applied for a one-hour trial membership from Yupi, but unexpectedly, Yupi directly gave him a permanent VIP. After experiencing the paid questions as a VIP, the author found that the quality of both free questions and paid questions is very high. The paid questions not only include pictures and texts, but also list relevant knowledge points and other questions that the interviewer may ask. The problem-solving ideas are particularly clear, which is very helpful for learning and understanding. The author recommends that everyone first master the correct thoughts, and then express them in their own language and internalize the knowledge as their own.
Through understanding, I learned that in order to ensure the quality of the problem solutions, Yupi specially spent money to hire a team to write original problem solutions, so that it can present rich content with rich graphics and text, and rich knowledge expansion.
Although the author’s hands-on experience with the Interview Duck website is somewhat one-sided, I still strongly recommend you to experience it for yourself. Finally, the author also expresses his gratitude to Mr. Yupi for his support of this test. For programmers, the interview duck may be an effective assistant in overcoming interview difficulties. You may wish to give it a try and explore an interview preparation path that suits you.
