Software Interviews need a revamp. Coding rounds are IRRELEVANT to our jobs.

On average, software developers spend three months preparing for an interview.

A good engineer has to choose between:

1. Focusing on the job.
2. Practice useless DSA questions.

It's time to ask job-relevant questions and test candidates' WORKPLACE capabilities.

At InterviewReady, we are building tools to test engineering capabilities like:

1. Fault Tolerance
2. Async Programming
3. API Design

These are fundamental concepts that all engineers should know.

We want to enable senior engineers to focus on their jobs rather than spending three months revising binary trees.

We want to help young engineers improve through self-practice using our automated tools.

We want to make hiring tests relevant.
