Introductory preview

Code review interviews are one of the most underrated rounds in the hiring process — and one of the most revealing. While coding interviews test if you can write code, code review interviews test if you can read it, reason about it, and improve it. They reveal how you think about quality, how you prioritise feedback, and how you communicate with other engineers. Many candidates prepare for months on LeetCode but walk into a code review round completely unprepared. Don't be that person.
