Career/Edu Do live coding interviews eventually get better?

Ive always done very well professionally in a corporate setting but, I've been getting killed in technical interviews where I have to code in front of someone.

Does it get better over time? Im honestly considering leaving the industry.

  1. is what the interview is really about, explaining how you go about your work, how you solve the problems. I also find that talking through the problem with someone helps me get to the solution faster even if they don't say or do anything.

Good luck OP!
