- In this video, I conduct an easy Google coding interview with Ben Awad, a software engineer and tech CZcamsr. As a Google Software Engineer, I interviewed dozens of candidates. This is an easier version of the type of coding interview that you would get at Google or any other big tech company.

What’s more cocky and sarcastic than Ben Awad? Ben Awad after he successfully reverses a linked list.
Check out the video we did on Ben’s channel if you wanna see _me_ get interviewed by Ben! czcams.com/video/gnkrDse9QKc/video.html
you guys are making awesome content, making software engineering fun
Can i apply and get an interview at Google when I'm living overseas? Or do i have to move to the US before applying for the job...
What advice do you have for us foreigners?
😂

I imagine this guy saying "idk that's pretty sus" in the actual interview and the google techlead be like
"Aight, you in"

@@ZVEKOfficial ok
@@ZVEKOfficial this was 11 months ago, give it a rest brainlet
Clem : Do you have any questions for us ?
Ben : How on earth can you keep using Angular ?
Hey, why does Ben get the easy question!!! I had to suffer through the very hard one for a whole hour 😑
R.I.P
coding interviews are truly broken.......it just went brrr
Rip
Hey Tim
you can watch the title , it says " Easy interview "
And I think you r better than awad in coding 😏😉⚘
but thanks ;)
Clement you should interview more beginners and see their progress in a couple of months. this would be really fun and interesting
It'll be awesome! 🚀
calling ben a beginner DAMN
@@list9016 bro did you see how much he struggled to reverse a linked list? Clearly a beginner, at least with data structures and algorithms
@@jomalomal these things take practice ,it's nothing magical with them.
@@jomalomal you're confusing the meaning of a "beginner" to programming to the meaning of knowing how to study particular coding problems like reversing a linked list. I might have studied linked lists in a college class. But programming for 5 years + earning more than 6 figures. I have never needed to know how to reverse a linked list. But once I looked at the problem, studied it and learnt it fully within a couple hours.
So I'm saying you're confusing studying leetcode questions to being a beginner to coding. You can program without knowing a lot of these questions like inverting a binary tree. All those questions only show you know how to study for an exam. Ben is clearly not a beginner, he's programmed a lot. He just didn't take time to study those Leetcode questions
*changes d to D and calls it Big D in a coding interview*
Interviewer - HHHHHMMMMMMMM 👀
tel me the timestamp for when that happened! Please!
@@aryamankukal1056 pretty much at the beginning, first question when he starts commenting the way
Dallas is also referred to as The Big D 😂
@@aryamankukal1056 6:48
Finally someone who noticed
I love Clement giggling at Ben's every move
That's what happens when you interview a natural comedian.
@@clem ehm👀 do you mean he is a joke?😂😂
@@nomadvagabond1263 nope his live is a joke 😂😂😂
This video was super fun, I myself love frontend engineering and I'm a big fan of both you and Ben Awad, so I'd definitely like to see you put him through a real google coding interview.
Ben looks so much happier in this video then he does in any of his own.
Im subscribed to both and am happy to finally see you two in action. Had fun watching this and the one on Ben's channel! Cannot wait for the follow up videos on both sides. xD
It's kind of fun seeing a master failing a bit in other master's craft. Great video clement.
There is a video on my Algoexpert ad 😂
You should interview him for Angular
I think Ben would just walk out of that interview and even *rm -rf* the machine he'd be interviewing on.
Ben hates angular
I literally want to watch this😂😂
@@clem hahahahahah
@@clem 😂😂😂
i thought clement will pull his hair out as soon as awad named a variable "next_guy" :)
😂Not the best variable name for an arbitrary linked list node, but I figured Ben wouldn't name it like that in a real production-grade codebase. Also, this was just a fun interview!
Classic Ben Awad though.
what would be a better name? xD
@@JustTheHighlights Equality!
😂😂😂😂
this is one of a few computer programmers that is this energetic and interesting in terms of communication and interaction, most people I know are nerds and introverts, that is also myself LOL
Absolutely love this video!!!! Look forward to you guys making the next one 🤩
dude seems so happy and cocky at the same time, couldnt help it but smile all the way through the video
This was by far one of the best nd funniest vids I've seen on this channel....
"How about that algo girl" was just epic 😂😂
Apart from the actual coding, this guy is just so fun to work with.
This was fun. Really looking forward to the next interview with Ben.
10/10 would love to see Ben do the actual coding interview. Make him use Angular 👀
best variable name : next_guy xD
next_next_guy
next_guys_neighbor_that_asks_for_sugar
This the only video I know how to reverse linked list.
Means easy task I have seen on this channel otherwise I have only seen a difficult task here.
I prefer all who see my comment to see this channel because it is really helpful.
Best for logic design.
Ben is the man. Cool to see the colab!
Your videos are so awesome, funny and at the same knowledgeable ❤️
Please make more Google coding Interviews @AlgoExpert Guy
"I'm not happy about that naming convention" ohhh Ben I love you for this.
Jezz i can never be this happy talking or giving my interview both of them are so chill. Greate watching them . I'm far away to crack any interview btw.
That inverseLinkedList could be a real challenge for someone who never heard about that before, it is not something we normally do in a daily basis. I can say it is not easy, even harder than the matrix challenge in the later session with Ben.
Can you do the round two please? With more difficult questions??? Would love to see Ben grind
how could you beat the guys who have been coding for years when you have been coding only for 6 months? you are amazing and talented.
He is smart and also has a math background so that helps him a lot when he codes as coding involves a lot of problem solving, logic, and analytical thinking.
Thanks for this, these videos have definitely upped my confidence in my own abilities so I appreciate you guys!
Dude watching this again after an year or so, watching Ben is still so funny man
He lost me when he shortened “temp” to “tmp” but left “previous” as “previous
😂😂😂
@@brooksgunn5235 LMAO
Typo
I started watching this video and i got so lost in it that i didn't feel that it was 28 fuckin minutes long... Amazing one🔥❤️
I don't know why but this video hyped me up to practice my programming!
Ok! Now I wanna see Ben go thought a real intreview! :D
I pause the video at the linked list reversal question and challenged myself to come up with a function. It took me an hour but I finally got it! Now I'll watch what he came up with.
I completely over complicated my method compared to his...
This is really fun !! I totally agree that the Py indentation is over whelming lol. Thank you guys for the video !
this was fun, one of those easy questions that just takes some examples to run through and get it down
Hey Clement, Pls make a playlist of your Mock Programming interview questions.
Thank you in advance.
17:21 Ben is not pulling his punches back lol. Roasting about Vim mode in the video 😂
Imagine if a very skilled candidate adopted Ben’s skill of typing jk and troll var names and comments
i love how the algoexpert guy just smiles all the time
You also can reverse linked list with recursion:
def reverse_linked_list(node, next=None):
if node.next is None:
node.next = next
return node
new_node = node.next
node.next = next
return reverse_linked_list(new_node, node)
This video was awesome, really. Waiting for the google interview heheh
I forgot how to reverse a linked list after I saw Ben scramble😂
I am not ready lol. Great video, first video I watch 100%.
U guys are awesome !
I enjoyed watching the video
I hope Ben gets the job after countless of interviews lol Great Content. Thanks!!
yeeeaaaaah, let's do that!!! let's do the full interview for Mr. ben
GREAT video please do a second part!!!
Cheers from Arg
I just loved the video ❤❤ the interview was too cool to be called as an interview 😊
Your videos are all over the internet. I had to subscribe this time, :)
Yes. Please. Let's see the google interview!
these questions getting easier and easier
Hey, man, I don't know about you, but I absolutely enjoyed this video. Learned so much!
I didn't know what inverting a binary tree was and once I saw that diagram, I immediately got the solution(same as what Ben did).
Also, using multiple assignment is shorter tree.left, tree.right = tree.right, tree.left.
tree.left, tree.right = tree.right, tree.left will be incorrect because tree.left will not be what you want to set tree.right to. You still need a "temp" var to hold tree.left before you set tree.right. But yes, multiple assignment (for languages that understand it, is useful here).
@@Dyanosis it does. The assignment expression has variables passed by values on the right. Try running it for yourself once.
using Python made inverting the binary tree a lot easier.. I'm a medium level coder and it took me about 45 mins to come up with the recursive logic and code the same in Java.
Let's get that interview!!!!!
I think that's the first video where I really understood something (beginner programmer problems) =))
Awesome video guys! Thanks!!
Oh snap, finally a question I actually saw in algorithms class.
this is a coolest interview video, 3 nodes create prev, curr, frwd and get job in google😁
Yes please! Another video! Ben and Clem =
you guys seem like you've been friends your entire lives lol
Wheras Clement has created a platform for training people to crunch through these thoes of interview questions (and has hired tim to help him with it), wheras Ben questions the relevance of the practice.
It would be interesting to hear them discuss / debate the relative advantages and disadvantages of coding interviews
@@discretelycontinuous2059 I want to see this!
I never inverted a binary tree before.
paused the video and solved it and continue to watch.
I came up with the same solution
Great work clem. Best getting your application tested by Ben himself.
Oddly enough, this is a lot like my recent interviews went, minus the fact that I had a white background google drive instead of an ide. My interviewer also asked me weird questions and then got both of confused for half an hour c:
And how did they go
This was a fun interview video! 👍
Your previous vedio is of very much knowledge, fun and this is insane plzz both of you kindly upload more vedio like this you with algo ben with react or vue.... Or other framwrks...
Hoping your best for future 🙏🙏..
We are Indian we are doing 🙏 rather than 👍🏼,🔥....
... Plz consider my concern ....🥺
Entertaining and fun as always ;)
I'm only subscribing because you got Ben to come on your video.
Ben throwing shade on clem every now and then ;)
I've only been in Computer Science at school for three months, so all of this is well over my head, but it's fascinating to watch anyway.
Same bro same
yes part two please!!
new sub :)
You are great! Following you always 👍👌
I'd love to see a legitimate interview!
I think we are gonna get a new worker for algo expert 😁
👀
The chemistry is unmatched.
8:55 "This is what I know I think is right"
story of my life lol
I've got youtube notification for this video from both channels 😂
inverted binary should be reversing all the numbers where head now points to the last record which is the highest number and the last record at the bottom should be pointing to 1.
This binary tree problem is instead called flipping the left and right nodes of a binary tree
Bring the interview!!
Imagine cracking an angular jocks in google coding interview.
There's actually a missing edge case. If the linked list is empty, it is represented by None and the function crashes accessing curr.next in line 14.
The function accepts the head as input, implying that the list has at least one item being the head
@@ayhamboi9720 no not really. head can point to null (empty list)
@@theendurance its passing the node itself not the pointer of a linked list struct, and a null node would be invalid here
@@ayhamboi9720 not correct
Holy shit this guy rocked it, made me a fan
We want part 2, clément
Yes please, do the legitimate google interview with Ben Awad!
You should do a video with Coding Garden, it would be really interesting !
@17:29 Clément exhibiting God-tier restraint :)
My dream interview question. I did cry if I get this question.
unless they ask you to do it on C. Using pass by reference..
I can't track what he's doing but this is already my favorite interview lol
Google coding interview with Tourist when 👀
I'm down whenever he is!
@@clem tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist tourist!!!
I'm waiting for that day!!
torist doesn't give interviews
@@clem Tourist will be like "I have 7 gold medals in code jam . So ask your question and watch my screen casts , rather than wasting my time". Anyway, i don't think Gennedy would ever say that.
Damn I never thought inverting a binary tree is that easy
I don't know why everyone makes it out to be so scary or difficult! It really isn't!
Because it sounds like you're flipping it vertically not horizontally.
@@KayronDeacon yess.
@@clem Because of the ad, lol. I watch that ad like 30 times a day.
@@KayronDeacon yeah when I first heard it I thought it was head as input, but an array of leaf nodes or something as output, and you have to reverse the connection, so the original left child will now have its parent as its right child.
24:00: Just a sidenode, in Python you can actually do this: tree.left, tree.right = tree.right, tree.left
Man I really miss those sick card trick intros
Clem was literally smirking whole time
I feel like he legit searched the answer to invert binary tree before hand. He struggled a little much for reversing a linked list
Oh god, Thank you so much for SAYING OUT LOUD the fact that Python indentation is the worst thing. Those were my first words when i first learned python.
i like the video and hope to put Ben in real google interview in soon future :->
