Thanks so much for this book. The senior interview process for iOS is so intense right now. This context is a natural companion to the daily practice required even for engineers that have been doing this for a long time.

I used to fail technical interviews constantly, despite watching countless online courses. Then I found Mr. Mike's book on Linkedin, and it made all the difference. His excellent plan worked for me, leading to my first job contract today! After six months of searching and over ten failed interviews, this book was incredibly helpful. I wholeheartedly recommend this second edition to anyone struggling with technical interviews, it's easy to follow and the best resource out there.

This book is exactly what I was looking for.The sections on modularization, Swift internals, architecture trade-offs and system design felt much closer to real senior-level interviews than anything else I've read. Most interview resources focus on the right answer, while this one helped me understand the reasoning and depth behind it

thank you for putting this together ^_^, I enjoyed reading it and took away several practical insights. Every explanation of different answer levels helped me understand the gap between a correct answer and a strong senior-level answer. This book changed the way I approach interview preparation and helped me focus on demonstrating senior-level thinking, not just giving correct answers ❤❤❤.
