Coding Rounds

Coding rounds that grill your reasoning, not just your output.

Talk through your approach, write the solution, and get judged on reasoning and tradeoffs, with real code-related follow-ups, the way a real interviewer probes.

Why grinding problems alone falls short

LeetCode tells you pass or fail, never why your approach was weak.

You can solve it but can't explain your approach out loud under pressure.

AI can write the code; real interviews probe the thinking behind it.

No follow-ups on complexity, edge cases, or the tradeoffs you skipped.

Grinding problems alone

  • Pass/fail, no feedback on reasoning
  • No one asks you to defend the approach
  • Edge cases never come up
  • Silence instead of follow-ups

A real coding interview

  • Explain your approach before you code
  • Follow-ups on complexity and edge cases
  • Evaluated on reasoning, not just tests passing
  • A report on how you actually think

How a Rehurz coding round runs

01

Pick a problem

Start from a problem and read the prompt, just like a real screen.

02

Explain your approach

Talk through your plan first. The interviewer cross-questions your reasoning before you write a line.

03

Write the solution

Implement it while the interviewer probes complexity, edge cases and alternatives.

04

Get evaluated

Scored on reasoning and correctness, not just whether the tests pass, with a written report.

What makes it more than an autograder

Verbal cross-questioning

You defend your approach out loud before and during coding, the way a real interviewer makes you.

Code-aware follow-ups

Questions react to what you actually wrote: complexity, edge cases, and the tradeoffs you made.

Reasoning-weighted scoring

How you think is graded, not only the final output.

It kept catching answers that sounded fine to me but did not address the question. Frustrating at first. My answers got noticeably sharper within two weeks.

Questions, answered.

Do I write real code?
Yes. You talk through your approach and write the solution, with follow-ups throughout.
Is it just pass/fail like LeetCode?
No. You are evaluated on your reasoning and tradeoffs as well as correctness.
Which languages?
Bring the language you would use in the real interview.
Is the first one free?
Yes. Your first interview is on us.

Practise the round you're actually nervous about.

Talk through a problem, write it, and get told how your reasoning held up.
