After a failed coding interview, how do you move on? 😢

@codewithvoid After my failed interview, I came back and ran the whole thing in my head. I realized that I made a few mistakes that needed correcting. Watch out for these mistakes 👇

@codewithvoid 1⃣ When asked an ambiguous question, not asking clarifying questions. He described a task and an algorithm. Then asked me to "improve it". I assumed he wants me to propose something with lower asymptotic complexity. Turns out all he expected was a small simplification. +

@codewithvoid I feel I could have gotten it if I asked if he expected a reduction in asymptotic complexity, or something. +

@codewithvoid 2⃣ When solving a question, not thinking aloud. I kept thinking for a long time. I should have thought aloud what my sketch of the solution was, how I was going about it, what are the options, etc. The interviewer was helpful and gave me hints when I finally asked. +
