CS Knowledge Interview How should I prepare? 💬
CS knowledge refers to design patterns, networks, operating systems, databases, and data structures. The problem was that studying these through academic textbooks was overwhelming due to the sheer volume, while studying through the internet often led to confusion due to incorrect information.
To solve these problems, I wrote a book called "CS Knowledge Notes for Interviews" and created a course that covers all CS knowledge at once based on the content of this book and important topics not included in the book.

A whopping 25 hours!! You can master CS knowledge with just this one course.
I want to complete everything related to "CS knowledge" with just this one course. I'm sorry, but you cannot prepare 100% for CS interviews by only studying past questions. I don't just study past questions, but the core fundamental concepts of CS, and even deep knowledge to prepare for questions that lead to more questions. I want to say that this is the right way to study CS knowledge.
A total of 500 pages of amazing course materials provided!😎
Starting from essential developer knowledge to databases, operating systems, and interview tips, we provide a total of 500 pages of teaching materials that incorporate all the essential elements of CS knowledge. Through this, we've worked hard to ensure that this single course can cover the overall content of CS knowledge.
The content of the lesson plan is as follows.

Design patterns, networks, operating systems, databases, data structures - learn CS fundamentals based on actual interview questions.
Chapter 0 Essential Knowledge for Developers
Essential knowledge that developers must know and frequently appears in interviews - this course provides detailed explanations of prerequisite knowledge needed by developers, including JSON, API, XML, Docker, containers, and more.
Chapter 1 Design Patterns
Libraries and frameworks fundamentally incorporate design patterns. Perhaps because of this, interviews sometimes ask about design patterns as a way to gauge whether you know libraries well. This course covers not only the concepts of design patterns but also shows how they are actually implemented in real libraries.
Chapter 2 Network
It explains important concepts in networking such as IP, HTTP, and REST API, and uses follow-up questions to cover topics like solving large-scale traffic issues - explaining important parts in depth while covering less critical parts with just the essentials.
Chapter 3 Operating System
It provides an overview of operating systems and explains processes, system calls, kernels, memory structures, and more in detail.
Chapter 4 Database
Starting with the fundamentals of databases like entities, this course focuses on explaining the important aspects of databases including transactions, indexing, isolation, normalization processes, and database deadlocks.
Chapter 5 Data Structures
First, we'll explore the fundamentals of data structures by explaining time complexity and space complexity, then cover all essential data structures including queues, stacks, and more.
Chapter 6 Interview Know-How
If we've covered CS interviews so far, I'll share insights based on the "model answers" I actually gave during personality interviews and technical interviews I've experienced.
I believe that a course that is continuously updated is the best course. Proving this, in 2022, it was selected as the most updated course among all courses on Inflearn. I will always strive to quickly reflect feedback from students and areas that need improvement so that you can take the best course possible.
2023. It was selected as the course that received the most reviews among all courses on Inflearn. It has received such a great response from many students, and I am confident that it is a course that greatly helps students with their CS interviews.
Knowledge Creator Interview 💬
Q. Who would you recommend this course to?
I would recommend this to those who have some programming experience and are now preparing for interviews to get into their desired companies but don't know what to prepare, as well as non-majors or majors who want to build solid CS knowledge.
Q. Can I prepare for all CS interviews with this course?
Yes, it is possible. First, most of the content in this course is prepared based on concepts from actual CS interview questions. In other words, this course is prepared based on questions from real major IT companies. Second, I believe it is more solid because it is prepared based not only on my experience but also on the interview experiences of my developer acquaintances. Third, we prepare not only for past questions but also for core CS knowledge concepts that are likely to appear. Furthermore, if students suggest that certain concepts are needed, we review and create content to prepare for "the latest questions" as well. Therefore, I believe you can prepare for CS interviews with this course alone.
Q. How long does it take to receive a response to a question?
You can receive a response as quickly as within 1 hour, but typically you should expect it within 1 to 3 days. (Excluding weekends and holidays)
Q. What's the best way to study with this course?
Well... actually, I would like you to study by memorizing all the content of this course. This is because this course covers comprehensive and core CS content + deep knowledge + interview questions, so if you memorize everything in this course, I believe you'll be perfectly prepared for CS interviews. That's why you need to study slowly. I think it's best to spend about 30 minutes to 1 hour a day watching the lectures, understanding and memorizing them, and taking about 2 months to study step by step.
Q. It seems like the practice sessions are mainly focused on Java or JavaScript. I primarily work with Go or Python - will I be able to understand?
If you know at least one programming language, I've explained it in a way that's easy to understand and prepared the code at that level of difficulty.
Recommended for these people
Who is this course right for?
Developers who have some programming experience and want to learn CS knowledge
Majors or non-majors who want to learn CS knowledge
Need to know before starting?
You should know at least one programming language.
I deeply agree with all the points that other people have made in their long reviews, and they are critical for beginners learning CS.
I regret buying it without reading the reviews in advance.
Those who already know all the contents of the table of contents may find it useful for review, but considering the price, I don't think it's necessary to buy it and do that.
If you're just learning it for the first time, just buy the book.
Since this first course review, we have reviewed the entire course and have made improvements to the insufficient parts, and have updated over 100 lectures. Please refer to this.

As a non-major, I had no knowledge of CS at all, so I always had a lot of worries about technical interviews. In the lecture, the instructor explained it in a much easier way by showing pictures or examples in the network part through a browser. I am filling in the gaps by repeating the instructor's book and lectures. Thank you for the great lecture book!

Since the overall CS knowledge is reviewed quickly and in depth, I can supplement the content without being too excessive or lacking. The tone and materials used for explanation are also good. I bought it before the interview and only took the parts I didn't remember well and had the interview, but I think I did well thanks to the interview. The lecture content is also continuously updated, so it seems like a good lecture to watch over and over again :)
