Technical interviews judge the candidate’s ability to perform technical aspects of the job. Whiteboarding is a type of technical interview which requires the candidate to code a solution without the assistance of a text editor.

Coding an efficient solution is important, but the ultimate goal as an interviewee is to convince the interviewer you would be a desirable co-worker.

A desirable co-worker is able to articulate their thought process and collaborate without friction.

Our whiteboarding strategies revolve around communication at every step.

The steps are:

  1. Clarify the Problem
  2. Create Inputs
  3. Outline the Solution
  4. Code the Solution
  5. Test the Solution
  6. Analyze the Solution

Instructions

Practice makes perfect!

Run through these steps with a new practice problem:

Write a function which prints every number from 0 up to the given input. If divisible by 3, print "Fizz" instead of the number. If divisible by 5, print "Buzz". If input is divisible by 3 AND 5, print "FizzBuzz".
