I'm about to go on my job search again. I had a pretty good experience in DevOps/SRE role and consider myself a great engineer in DevOps. I read story from Slack, AirBnb, Dropbox techblog and I have been done similar thing for the old employees that I work for. Granted the inhouse tools I built for them cannot open source to show my skill.

I read on few Google interview story and feel that I lack the knowledge to pass their interview. I don't know thing about red-black tree, haven't implement bllom filter myself yet, Haven't read the full Paxos/Raft/Dynamo/Spanner/Calvin paper yet etc.

I'm planing working on that: practice leetcode, read cracking the coding interview, read https://hpbn.co/

Anyone can share what you study to pass those SRE interview?

Thanks.
