About us
Welcome to the SDE Skills meetup! Congratulations on taking the first step towards improving your interviewing skills. We are committed to improving the core engineering skills essential for software engineers by building a community where SDEs and future-SDEs can exchange ideas, solicit feedback, nurture and grow their core skills.
We will also cover essentials of interviewing to enable you to assess talent better and also be better prepared for your interviews.
There are several ways to engage with the community.
• Discord: Join us in our active slack group - https://sdeskills.com/discord
• Facebook group: Subscribe to notifications and engage with our facebook community - [https://sdeskills.com/fb ](https://sdeskills.com/fb)
• YouTube: We record most of our sessions, subscribe to our channel to watch newer videos - https://sdeskills.com/youtube
We are always looking for volunteers, if you are interested in helping out please reach out to us on the slack #volunteering
About Us: SDE Skills is a volunteer led, 501c3 non-profit organization that has been helping improve the interviewing skills of the community since 2010.
All skill levels welcome!

SDE Skills - AI Assisted Coding Interview Practice
AI is changing how software engineers write code and how companies evaluate technical skills. In this hands-on session, we will explore how to approach coding interviews where AI tools such as ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and Claude may be used to assist with problem-solving.
The goal is not just to generate code using AI, but to understand the problem, evaluate AI-generated solutions, identify bugs, optimize performance, and explain technical decisions.
### What We'll Practice
- Problem Solving: Break down coding problems and identify suitable approaches.
- AI-Assisted Coding: Learn how to effectively use AI tools during coding interviews.
- Code Review and Debugging: Evaluate AI-generated code, identify issues, and improve solutions.
- Testing and Optimization: Handle edge cases and analyze time and space complexity.
- Interview Communication: Explain your approach, trade-offs, and engineering decisions.
### What to Bring
- Laptop with your preferred coding environment and AI assistant
- Notebook and pen
- Willingness to participate and learn

Looking forward to learning and practicing together!
