I have taken a mock interview and my experience was amazing. My peer seemed to be as skilled as me and the problems were challenging enough. This had a feature where the interviewer is shown hints and gotchas to enhance interviewer experience.
I got to learn things as an interviewer and interviewee. I would definitely suggest others to use it.
How do you guys match an interviewer with an interviewee? Its a fairly interesting problem to find best possible match for a interview setting. Might extend to figuring out who is a best suited interviewer for a candidate out of whole pool of interviewers at a company.
We look at various parameters : Current company ( We match people from similar companies and never from the same company ) / university / coding performances across websites, including InterviewBit / interaction with design content on InterviewBit.
Based on that, we match people with almost similar backgrounds and enable them to interview each other. If you are already interviewing through InterviewBit, we give higher preference to finding a peer who is currently working at one of the companies you might interview at.
A similar matching happens to figure out the problem to be asked from you.
Is this only for gaining exposure to real world interviews or does it help in practicing programming problems also?
