How to clear interview in core IT companies

Hellow there, want to get into the flex muscle companies. Tight your waist, take deeeep breadth, kill the procrastination, listen carefully what I'm gonna say next. Because if the follow that up, within four months, definitely you are gonna land into your dream company..

First 15 days:

Try to do these in the prescribed order and hopefully you wont feel any difficulty.
Algorithm Lectures from MIT:(15 Days).
Do coding as well which clears concept in better way.

After completion of this you will have confidence and sense of completeness of the syllabus. Solving just questions will leave a doubt that there might be something I didn't cover.

Next 15 Days:

Data Structures from UC Berkley:(15 Days)

Next 30 Days:

Now you have a better understanding data structure and algorithm, now lets do some hands on with text books of prestigious writes.

Text Books(Use when required, no need to read cover to cover)

Algorithm Design Manual By Steven Skiena

Data Structures and Algorithms by Roberto Tamassia(optional)

Books for Interview Practice:(Keep solving 5-10 questions every day, don't get stuck for more than one hour, make a target to finish in 1 month)

Elements of Programming Interviews: Adnan Aziz, Amit Prakash(Must)

Cracking the Coding Interview: Gayle Laakman McDowell(easy)

Data Structure and Algorithm Made Easy : Narsimha Karumanchi(optional, but good)

It's time to practice:

Two Must Links for Data-Structure  and Algorithm: Write code on paper as well as system. Interviews are on paper.

http://www.geeksforgeeks.org/fundamentals-of-algorithms/

http://www.geeksforgeeks.org/data-structures/

Try to do all of the questions in the above links which are not in EPI (Elements of Programming Interviews).

Believe me or not, there are no questions for Data-Structure and Algorithm outside this. At least in India. Nobody asks beyond these.

Use an excel sheet to monitor goal and progress. Setting hard targets and finishing them.

Let me know if you find anything erroneous.

Now you are confident enough, let's rock the interviews.
