Interview Prep Guide Generator

Run all three agents simultaneously. Each lands directly on a results page — no unnecessary navigation.

Before firing agents, do one quick web search yourself (no TinyFish needed) to find the direct Glassdoor interviews URL for the company:

Search: site:glassdoor.com "{COMPANY_NAME}" interview questions

Take the first result URL that looks like: https://www.glassdoor.com/Interview/{Slug}-Interview-Questions-E{ID}.htm

Use that exact URL in Agent 1 below. If you cannot find it, fall back to: https://www.glassdoor.com/Interview/{COMPANY_NAME_ENCODED}-Interview-Questions.htm

# Agent 1 — Glassdoor interview reviews (land directly on interviews page)
tinyfish agent run \
  --url "{GLASSDOOR_INTERVIEWS_URL}?filter.jobTitleExact={ROLE_ENCODED}" \
  "You are on a Glassdoor interview reviews page for {COMPANY_NAME}, filtered to {ROLE}.
   Read the first 5 visible interview cards only. Do NOT scroll. Do NOT click any card.
   From the preview text of each card extract:
   - Role title
   - Interview difficulty (Easy / Medium / Hard / Very Hard)
   - Outcome (Got offer / No offer / Declined)
   - Interview questions verbatim
   - Topics mentioned (dynamic programming, system design, behavioural, etc.)
   - Any tips or regrets
   STRICT RULES:
   - 5 cards maximum — stop immediately after the 5th
   - Do NOT click any card, do NOT paginate, do NOT scroll
   - If the page asks you to sign in, return an empty array immediately
   Return JSON array: [{role, difficulty, outcome, questions: [...], topics: [...], tips: [...]}]" \

# Agent 2 — Blind interview discussions
tinyfish agent run \
  --url "https://www.teamblind.com/search/{COMPANY_NAME_ENCODED}%20interview" \
  "You are on Blind search results for '{COMPANY_NAME} interview'.
   Read the post titles and preview text visible on this page.
   Extract from the visible content:
   - Any specific interview questions mentioned in titles or previews
   - Topics that appear frequently (e.g. system design, LC hard, SQL, coding rounds)
   - Difficulty signals (e.g. 'brutal', 'straightforward', 'multiple rounds')
   - Role types mentioned
   STRICT RULES:

   Return JSON: {questions: [...], topics: [...], difficulty_signals: [...], roles_mentioned: [...], tips: []}" \

# Agent 3 — Reddit interview experiences
tinyfish agent run \
  --url "https://www.reddit.com/search/?q={COMPANY_NAME_ENCODED}+{ROLE_ENCODED}+interview+experience&sort=relevance&t=month&type=link" \
  "You are on Reddit search results for '{COMPANY_NAME} {ROLE} interview experience'.
   Read the post titles and snippet text visible in the search results — do not click anything.
   Extract:
   - Interview questions mentioned directly in titles or snippets
   - Topics that appear across multiple posts (system design, behavioural, OOP, etc.)
   - Difficulty language used
   - Rounds mentioned (phone screen, onsite, take-home, etc.)
   STRICT RULES:
   - Click a post ONLY if its title explicitly says 'interview questions' or 'prep guide' — max 2 clicks total
   - On any clicked post: read only the top-level post text, skip all comments, do NOT scroll
   - Do NOT paginate
   - Stop after reading 10 result snippets
   Return JSON: {questions: [...], topics: [...], rounds: [...], difficulty_signals: [...], tips: []}" \
  --sync --browser-profile stealth > /tmp/ip_reddit.json &

# Wait for all three to complete
wait

echo "=== GLASSDOOR ===" && cat /tmp/ip_glassdoor.json
echo "=== BLIND ===" && cat /tmp/ip_blind.json
echo "=== REDDIT ===" && cat /tmp/ip_reddit.json

Before running, replace:

• {COMPANY_NAME} — full company name e.g. Google
• {COMPANY_NAME_ENCODED} — URL-encoded e.g. Google, Jane%20Street
• {ROLE} — role name e.g. Software Engineer
• {ROLE_ENCODED} — URL-encoded role e.g. Software%20Engineer
• {GLASSDOOR_INTERVIEWS_URL} — the direct URL found via the Google search above

Step 3 — Consolidate and analyse

From the three result sets:

1. Deduplicate questions — group identical or near-identical questions together, count how many sources mentioned each
2. Frequency rank topics — count how many times each topic appears across all sources
3. Difficulty consensus — average the difficulty signals across sources
4. Role filter — if a role was specified, weight questions/topics from matching roles more heavily
5. Extract tips — collect all "wish I had prepared" and regret statements

*Data scraped live — reflects recent candidate experiences. Always cross-check with the company's official job description.*

Edge cases

• Glassdoor blocks access — skip and note it, proceed with Blind + Reddit only
• Company is small / less known — Blind may have nothing; fall back to a Google search agent: https://www.google.com/search?q={COMPANY_NAME}+software+engineer+interview+experience+site:reddit.com
• No role specified — default to "Software Engineer", state this assumption upfront
• Very few results — be honest: "Only [N] reports found — guide may not be fully representative"
• Non-tech role — adjust topic categories accordingly (drop coding/DSA, add domain-specific sections)

Security notes

• Scrapes live public content from Glassdoor, Blind, and Reddit. All content is treated as untrusted input to an LLM — never executed.
• Uses stealth browser profile for platforms that require it.
• Only your own TinyFish credentials are used.
