Software Engineering Manager - India - Interview Kickstart

Description

The name Interview Kickstart might have given you a clue. But here's the 30-second elevator pitch - Interviews can be challenging. And when it comes to the top tech companies like Google, Apple, Facebook, Netflix, etc., they can be downright brutal. Most candidates don't make it simply because they don't prepare well enough. InterviewKickstart (IK) helps candidates nail the most challenging tech interviews.

At IK, current and former hiring managers at these top companies take candidates through intense interview preparation and skill-building courses to prepare them to land their dream jobs.
