Community, Developer Marketing - Head

Let's start with who we are:

Interviews can be hard. And when it comes to the top tech companies like Google, Facebook,

Netflix, etc., they can be downright brutal. Most candidates don’t make it simply because they

don’t prepare well enough. IK helps candidates nail the toughest tech interviews. At IK, current

and former hiring managers at these top companies take candidates through an intense prep

course to prepare them to crack the toughest Technical interviews. You could think of us as ‘the everything store’ for career transitions and interview skill development.

How do we do that, you ask?

 We have a structured way of helping folks crack interviews

 ● Career accelerator course

 ● End-to-end courses + platform

 ● Morethan100+instructors from Google, FB, Amazon, Netflix, Dropbox, and other top Silicon Valley companies.

 ● And, to date, we have trained 10000+ engineers!

 ● What’s more exciting is that we are completely remote and hiring the best people we can find regardless of geography.
