Course Description

This course has been designed to help you pass your next coding interview. It focuses on puzzles from Codility's training lessons, so if you have an online coding test coming up, this course is perfect for you.
The key to passing coding interviews is to practice as much as possible by solving various types of coding puzzles. In doing so you sharpen your problem solving skills and eventually you will start to see patterns amongst the different coding solutions. You also increase your chances of being asked a problem youve already solved.
In this course youll get to practice many of these coding puzzles. In every section we introduce the topic, explain the problem and later provide you with a few hints that help solve the puzzle. In the end we arrive at the solution together.
Along the way you'll learn how to ride a motorbike, surf, scuba dive and fly an aeroplane. *Join me on this course, and lets get you to pass this interview!*Not really, however this course is pretty fun regardless.
All code in this course can be found on github, username/project: cutajarj/CodilityInJavaWho this course is for:
Java Developers about to take the codility coding interviewJava Developers about to take another coding interview, such as hackerrank or othersJava Developers about to take a face to face or phone coding interview

Very useful and good taught course. James is also very responsive and takes the time to answer any questions you might have. Much appreciated!

this course is amazing, excellent work and explanations

By Natalia Marek on 10/4/2020

Problems that James prepared are incredibly well explained with animations and analogies. New content is added to the course but at a slow pace (~30 mins of content every 2-3 months). Just don't expect that every Codility problem is explained here and you won't be let down. Also, James is very reliable in terms of answering questions. He responds to every question with great detail and care.

This is a great course! not even just for Codility but just for understanding core concepts when it comes to problem solving. I could barely answer any of the questions, didnt know where to start or how to even properly approach a question, given its wording. But by following this course ( for 2 days ) I found im able to understand problems a lot more, I really like the way you describe each question and show visuals and really solidifying what needs to be done before jumping to code. Its allowed me to complete the tasks in both C++ and C# as it doesnt really matter the language as the explanations are great! Thank you! Would love to for more!

great job

By Brian on 8/16/2020

Very helpful. Good explanation in most part. a bit rash on several cases that could cause confusions.
