Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from regular interview prep?

Senior/staff interviews focus heavily on system design depth, cross-functional influence, and technical leadership rather than coding algorithms.

What system design topics are covered?

Advanced topics like global-scale systems, multi-region architecture, capacity planning, service mesh, and technical strategy.

Who provides the coaching sessions?

Coaches are current or former staff/principal engineers from top tech companies who've conducted hundreds of senior interviews.

Do you cover the coding portion?

Yes, but we focus on senior-level expectations: clean code, testing considerations, and production-ready solutions rather than algorithm speed.

How do you practice leadership scenarios?

Role-play exercises covering conflict resolution, cross-team collaboration, mentoring, and influencing without authority.

What about compensation negotiation?

We provide guidance on negotiating senior-level packages including base, equity, signing bonus, and level negotiation.
