If I had one day to prep for algorithms, what's the best way to go about preparing for it?

I have not actively interviewed in 4-5 years and so not practised algorithms for a while now.

I got a phone screen day after tomorrow. What's the best way I can prepare in the one day that I have to make sure I get through the technical questions asked in the phone screen?

    Oof, 1 day is not a ton of time. I would do this:

    1. Binge the new data structures and algorithms course: [Course] Master The Data Structures And Algorithms Interview
    2. Try to do 5-10 LeetCode problems in the next 24 hours. Make sure to follow the advice from the course to learn them properly
    3. Get great sleep the night before and listen to some peaceful music 30 minutes before the interview. This will maximize your dynamic state, which you'll 200% need given minimal prep

    Good luck!
