They aren't able to do technical questions because they serve a broad audience but practicing HackerRank questions on a whiteboard or a notepad is close enough.
Question 1 - Do you think there is any value in connecting the John to PM's from Google, Facebook, Uber, Salesforce etc so they can do a mock interview and give first hand feedback to John. Each interview is time boxed and the questions are composed by those PM's. The PM's get paid to do the mock interview.
Question 2 - will a Google PM be ok in doing this mock considering that it may be considered unethical? What about the non Google PM's who are equally competent but work for other companies?
Thanks a lot for your time @RandomOpinion
This violates the anti-moonlighting clause that most companies have.

There is no incentive for top companies to permit their employees coach applicants with questions from their interview process. It would amount to being able to pay money to get an edge in their hiring process and the top companies wouldn't even be getting any of the fee.
The employees at the top companies are making enough money that they would have no interest in it anyway.
