The big idea
Coding interviews test how you think, not just whether you get the right answer. AI is a great practice partner — as long as you solve the problem first and then ask for feedback.
Some examples
- Solve a LeetCode problem on paper, then ask AI to grade your approach.
- Have AI ask you follow-up questions like a real interviewer would.
- Ask AI to suggest one cleaner way to solve it, then explain why.
- Practice talking through your code out loud while AI listens via voice.
Try it!
Pick one interview problem. Solve it without AI. Then paste your solution and ask AI for one specific improvement.
