Hey! I just wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU for making videos explaining these concepts in a very clear manner! I can confidently talk trees, traversals, backtracking and dp all thanks to you! AND on top of that I managed to land a job at Google!! Just 3 months ago, I was struggling with leetcode and nearly came to the conclusion that I would never make it to a dream company! For all of those out there losing hope, keep grinding! THANK YOU SO MUCH ONCE AGAIN GUYS! I WISH I COULD BUY THE TEAM A BEER!

Hey, I'm from your platform: and just want to give you a positive result I got an intern offer from facebook! My on campus interview consisted of 3 LC easies like add two strings with a really great interviewer, so I think I got really lucky. I just want to say thanks. I don't know how many hours of video of you I've watched over the past year (non-creepily loll, how many times I felt lost but was relieved to Google a problem, and see Back To Back SWE come up, I was saved knowing you had a video covering a concept or problem. Whenever I was tired or overwhelmed studying, you gave me that energy and enthusiasm I needed to get into the problem, so thanks.

Hi! I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for your videos. Just a few months ago I was panicking because I felt so unprepared with Leetcode and prepping for interviews, so instead of bingewatching TV shows, I went through all of your videos, which are so engaging and well explained. I just landed Facebook for next summer, and I want you all to know I couldn't have done it without you! (literally--I knew how to do my questions because you went over the intuition so clearly). Keep up the awesome work!

Thank you thank you THANK YOUUUU!!! I really wanted to tell you sooner, cause you were there for me while I was studying. But Microsoft wants me!!!


I started my interview process in Jan and April/11, did the onsite. I studied for one full month lots of problems and soon found your videos here. I just got off the phone that due to some visa issues (cause I'm from South America), they can't give me the position in the US but there's a team in Vancouver that wants me and they are waiting for some input before they can process the offer.I am beyond happy, cause thanks to you, WE made possible my dream to be able to work on a big company.


I knew I had it on me, and you helped me prepare for it. So this is our success. We made it!. Keep up the good work and if you ever need help in something, please let me know. I'll be happy to help other people to achieve their dreams. DESPACITO IS GOING TO MICROSOFT!!! I am beyond happy :) Gracias!

I recently found your videos and soon later applied to Microsoft on a whim even though I didn't feel prepared. They gave me two chances to do a technical for screen for two different roles. I failed the first one, and miraculously passed the second while using the free wifi from WholeFoods to take the call.


Anyway, I went on-site in September and got tripped up on level order traversal on the last interview of the day because I didn't finish all the videos you guys have. Somehow they gave me a verbal offer today, and even though for family reasons I can't move to Seattle, I just never thought that I could even get an offer before your videos.


They made a huge difference for me, if nothing else, it boosted my confidence. And hey, Microsoft thinks I'm employable.


Even though In almost two decades older than you, your videos helped me realize everything is possible even at an 'advanced' age. Keep up the great work.


p.s. - not sure if you root for your hometown team, but the wizards are gonna be terrible this NBA season.

The #1 question people ask us.

I have CTCI and Leetcode. Why would I need this?

- Literally everyone

Leetcode and CTCI are both great at the same thing: showing problems and giving answers. Leetcode is great for helping you practice problems on your own.
But they aren't great resources for
explaining the intuition
behind the problems:
    Reasons To Join Back To Back SWE
    How do you build up to the optimal solution?
    Reasons To Join Back To Back SWE
    Why are there no better solutions?
    Reasons To Join Back To Back SWE
    What key insights is the interviewer looking for?
Sure, you could regurgitate some code on the whiteboard to solve the skyline problem, but can you explain in detail how you got that solution, and answer a firing line of questions probing into your understanding? Maybe in a phone screen, but not so much in an on-site.
You've likely watched our videos and you're here because you saw something different.
That difference is what makes us unique. It's the fact that we don't throw code on the board then walk you through it.
We provide depth.
A deep understanding.
The type that interviewers probe for.
We teach a frame of mind, the intuition, not just hundreds of problems to memorize.
Our platform isn't built to replace these great resources, but give you a huge edge on the people who just use these resources and don’t go deeper than that.

An Integrated Code Editor To Reinforce Your Learning

One of the most important things in learning new concepts is practice and repetition.
Repetition helps to improve speed, increases confidence, and strengthens the connections in the brain that help memory and performance.
Ultimately, this means a better interview performance for you and this is what we are training for. Great interview outcomes, everytime.
Each of our content items with code comes with a practice code editor where you can write your solution and run it against pre-defined test cases.

Multi-Language Problem Solutions

When you know a programming language you think in that language. Your primary programming language(s) is/are how you process problems.
Do you love to model problems in an Object Oriented fashion? Do you love the functional features of certain other languages?
We take this into mind and have our solutions translated into multiple languages (as many as we can possibly get to). The result is you get to study more patterns and paradigms.

Just wanted to let you know that you rock! I'm following a course right now, here in Denmark, on Algorithms and Datastructures and it really is quite fascinating and all, but our teacher is just not great at explaining how the different algorithms work (MergeSort, QuickSort etc).


Im a visual learner so textbooks do not quite cut it for me. I was kind of feeling a bit lost with the course, until I found your videos. I love how you take your time with every sinlge step, no rush, but rather making sure that every single aspect of the algorithm is covered and explained - its pure gold man. So THANK YOU for your work! All the best

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I am unhappy with my membership?

You have a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you feel the money you spent on our product wasn't worth it, we'll give you your money back. No questions asked. We want this to drive positive outcomes for people & if you do not benefit we have failed our mission.

Who is this platform for?

This platform is for people practicing for algorithmic & data structure software engineering interviews. The most common timelines are 1 month, 3 months, & 6 months. It is for people at the later-beginner to upper intermediate skill level, we assume a general grasp of fundamental programming concepts.

Will this prepare me for interviews at Facebook, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc.?

Yes, all the content covers lower to upper level data structures & algorithms fundamentals as well as their application to interview questions these companies ask. Many questions we cover we have been personally asked.

Will there be a lot of math? Or will the instruction be hard to follow?

No, we will only teach you what can give you an edge in the interview. If there is any math it will only be fairly simple & to your advantage to know (not mandatory). The whole platform is structured to give you an incremental approach to absorbing the concepts.

I didn't major in Computer Science, can I use this?

We do assume a fundamental basis of programming concepts like recursion, general understanding of how computers store variables, general programming constructs like loops, pointers, etc. We will bridge topics from the basic to the lower-advanced (only what is relevant for the interview).

Is any of this worth the money?

It depends what your goals are. Put this in perspective - the average base salary of a software engineer is $103,035. A factor that has a heavy hand in negotiating total compensation is interview performance. If we are able to get you to perform 10-20% better, you will be in a position to negotiate your total compensation up $10,000 - $30,000 a year (if you stand out vs other candidates you have more leverage). Against what you pay over your lifetime involvement with us, this is a 100x/10,000% ROI (return on investment). It seems ridiculous, but it is the reality.

What is "SWE"?

It stands for "SoftWare Engineering".

What languges do I need to know?

You do not need to know any specific language to benefit from the instruction. Our instruction focuses mostly on core intuition and problem solving. Most video code walkthroughs are in Java/Python, but we support testing in multiple languages.
