Interview Prep Resource To Know: Live Demo + Q&A with Aced.io Co-Founder (Formerly Exponent)
We're hosting an info session with Jacob Simon, one of the cofounders at Aced (formerly Exponent.io) 📚 to show us some of the new interview prep tools they've been building & give us exclusive discounts!
A little backstory: Jacob and his co-founder Stephen started Exponent back in 2018, originally focused on helping people prepare for product management interviews. Since then, they've grown into one of the biggest technical interview prep resources, with 500K+ YouTube subscribers and > 30M+ views.
Over the years, they've expanded pretty significantly into engineering interview prep, with resources covering:
Coding interviews: Data structures, algorithms, coding challenges, and practice problems.
System design: Real interview walkthroughs, architecture patterns, distributed systems, and AI system design.
Senior/Staff+ behavioral interviews: Communicating technical impact, demonstrating leadership, and avoiding downleveling.
Engineering management: People management, technical leadership, project retrospectives, and system design.
AI/ML engineering: ML fundamentals, coding, ML system design, and AI engineering interviews.
Mock interviews: Full-length interviews with experienced engineers, plus practice with peers, AI interviewers, and professional coaches.
They've also built a library of 3,000+ interview questions, company-specific interview guides, and detailed examples of how experienced engineers approach real interview problems.
Now they're rebranding as Aced, bringing all these resources together with new AI-powered interview prep tools, their acquisition of Pramp for peer-to-peer mock interviews, and a database of real resumes and interview experiences!
I'm excited to have Jacob walk us through a few of them:
We'll get a live walkthrough of their newer products:
AI Mock Interviews: Practice technical interviews with an AI interviewer.
Peer Mock Interviews: Get matched with other engineers to practice together (formerly Pramp!). There's a free option too.
Real Interview Experiences: Read detailed accounts of interviews from actual candidates.
Resume Database: See real resumes and where those candidates ended up getting hired.
Other Prep Resources: Coding, system design, AI engineering, and more.
We'll leave plenty of time for Q&A, so bring your questions!
Whether you're interviewing now or just want to see what's out there for interview prep tools, we'd love to have you join us! We'll also share the notes after in slack and will make the discount accessible in your Leopard portal.
