Unscripted Interview Videos
The Cracking the Coding Interview Videos are unscripted videos showing you what happens in a real technical interview. Watch Gayle L. McDowell, the founder and CEO of CareerCup, interview a candidate, just like she did over 100 times for big companies like Google and Microsoft. Watch how candidates face a new problem, dissect it, and code it on the white board.

What do we mean by “unscripted?”

Exactly what it sounds like. The candidates were not told what to say when, or how to solve the question. They didn’t even know what they would be asked until the cameras were rolling! In other words, what you are watching is 100% true-to-life.
These videos will:
Expose you to what a real Google / Microsoft / Amazon interview is like.
Show you how to handle questions when you don’t know the answer.
Show you, via mid-video pop-ups, what is going well and what the interviewer is thinking about.
Teach you what Google, Microsoft and Amazon look for in an interview.

Gayle Laakmann McDowell’s interviewing expertise comes from vast experience on both sides of the desk. She has completed Software Engineering interviews with – and received offers from – Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Apple, IBM, Goldman Sachs, Capital IQ, and a number of other firms.

Of these top companies, she has worked for Microsoft, Apple and Google, where she gained deep insight into each company’s hiring practices.

Most recently, Gayle spent three years at Google as a Software Engineer and was one of the company’s lead interviewers. She interviewed over 120 candidates in the U.S. and abroad, and led much of the recruiting for her alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania.

Additionally, she served on Google’s Hiring Committee, where she reviewed each candidate’s feedback and made hire / no-hire decisions. She assessed over 700 candidates in that role, and evaluated hundreds more resumes.

In 2005, Gayle founded CareerCup.com to bring her wealth of experience to candidates around the world. Launched first as a free forum for interview questions, CareerCup now offers a book, a video and mock interviews.

Gayle graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in Computer Science.
