Interview types

Technical interview practice, spoken like the real round.

Knowing the answer isn't enough. You have to explain trade-offs while someone listens. Hey Mocky picks the skills from your resume and the job, asks open technical questions and follows up when you stay on the surface.

What you'll practise

Built around your resume and the job.

  • Concepts and trade-offs for the skills you pick
  • System design and architecture discussions
  • Follow-ups that push for depth and edge cases
  • Missed points and a model answer for every question

Sample questions

  1. Q1How would you design a rate limiter for a public API?
  2. Q2Walk me through what happens when a database query gets slow in production.
  3. Q3When would you choose a queue over a direct API call?
  4. Q4How do you decide what to test first in a new feature?
  5. Q5Explain a technical decision you'd make differently today.

Your interview adapts these to your resume, the job and your answers.

Questions

Good to know.

Is there a coding editor?

Not yet. Hey Mocky focuses on spoken technical questions and system design, the part most people under-practise.

Which technologies does it cover?

Any. Focus skills are suggested from your resume, and you can add your own.

Can I make it harder?

Yes. Choose Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced before the interview.
