what languages do you provide interviews at?
David Glauber
Hey @iamkoby, We currently support 16 popular languages: Ruby, PHP, Python, Scala, Java, JavaScript, CoffeeScript, Closure, Objective-C, Go, C, C++, C#, Perl, Haskel and Erlang. At this point, we have decided not to support query languages, in order to enable full algorithmic solutions to our interview problems on any language. We're also following the market and will most likely support more languages in the future. If you think we missed an important language, please don't hesitate to shout out.

@dglbr @iamkoby What no Swift? ;)
David Glauber
haha, not yet :)

Software Engineers ourselves, we've built Pramp in order to help developers cope with a major recruiting challenge: how to demonstrate their full potential at job interviews. So many great software engineers miss amazing job opportunities because coding and interviewing are two different skills. By bringing developers to practice live interviews together and providing them with the tools to do so, we allow software engineers to practice as much as they want and whenever they want. We'd be happy to hear what you think about our concept and product experience, and whether there's something that you don't get while using the site. Thanks!

Hey David, This is a cool idea! Do you enable interviewees to build relationships beyond a (successful) first interview? Any fears of off platform use?
David Glauber
Hey Henri, Thanks! We are working on post-interview relationship features but haven't release that yet. We have no fears of off-platform usage, and are not into owning or limiting relationships. Since we offer a first of its kind algorithmic matching, neat interactive platform and full problems & solutions, we hope that users get enough value to keep PRAMPING with us :)

Recently finished a coding bootcamp and have been looking for platforms to practice on. Is the platform focused on coding (fizzbuzz and and what not ) or more CS, algorithmic problems.
David Glauber
Hey @msny_36, We've built Pramp for people like you, LMK if you need any help. Right now most of our interview problems are more of the CS, algorithmic data structures type, but we're adding new questions all the time.

Really great idea. Do you have any videos of a sample session that would give me as a prospective user a good idea of what the interaction can be like?
Rafi Zikavashvili
@jonlee108 Hey Jon, thank you for your comment. We are working on a video as we speak and will post it soon. In the meantime, I'll be glad to answer any questions you may have on the interaction. Or better yet, feel free to sign up and check out the interaction first hand. It's free.

@dglbr congrats on the launch! Would be cool if you include screenshots on your main site (or even better short video). That way potential users would have some expectations about future experience. After I saw screenshots here I realized that product is more well-thought than I anticipated. Good job!
David Glauber
@podviaznikov Thank you for the kind words and great feedback. Screenshots and video will be added to the our website soon.

Great news - starting this week, you can practice coding challenges by yourself! Every time you get assigned to a new coding interview challenge over Pramp, you can now solve it by yourself within our in-browser IDE. Better yet, we included test cases in the questions to make it easy for you to verify the correctness of your solution at any point - before, during or after an interview. Log into your Pramp account and explore this new feature. Enjoy Practicing on Pramp! www.pramp.com

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve just come out of Beta and launched Pramp 1.0. Everything that you asked us for is rolling out now - more practicing questions, simplified scheduling, better peer matching and many new features. We redesigned every major component in Pramp to help you crush your coding interviews while having fun at the same time. Practicing technical interviews with real engineers has never been easier! Go ahead and give it a whirl. https://blog.pramp.com/introduci...
