This is a good book if you are a recent graduate without any on-the-job experience, but I’m not sure if experienced programmers will many of these questions. My main profession isn’t programming (although that’s what I interviewed for), but I would think experienced programmers will see more real-life specific questions before they encounter questions about linked lists and hashes.

This book would be good if you were interviewing for an entry-level C programming job 20 years ago. However, todays programming world has: Object Oriented programming, database integration, SQL, the Internet, shell scripting langauges, and software life cycle development, NONE of which are covered in this book. This doesn’t even mention the classics, like joining a database table to another enstantiation of itself, spot the memory leak, or recurrsion. How did these morons ever got a job in software? I would not hire them based on the content of this sadly laking text. They also forgot the essential element of getting a programming job today: be on an H1B visa, speak little Engilsh, work cheap, and re-write your resume to parallel the job description regadless of whether you have the actual experience asked for.
