The Seven-Step Coding Interview Script

In How to Get Better at Approaching Coding Interviews, we covered the mindset and broad approach: communicate, gather requirements, identify inputs and outputs, start with brute force, and use pseudocode to clarify your thoughts.

This lesson compresses that behavior into a script you can follow during the actual interview.

Not a memorized speech. Not a fake performance.

A script is a checklist for your brain under pressure. When nerves spike, you don't want to invent the process from scratch. You want to know the next useful move.
