How this works
A verification process, not a scraper
Every collection on this site is assembled the same way, and it is worth knowing the method before you decide how much to trust it.
Indwar exists because of a specific failure mode in interview prep: the largest question banks are the least accurate ones. Anything that has been public for years has either been retired by the company or rewritten past recognition, and you cannot tell which from the listing.
So the unit of work here is not the question, it is the corroboration. An engineer finishes a loop and writes up what they were asked. That report sits unpublished. When someone unrelated describes the same problem in the same round, the two accounts get reconciled into one description and the question goes live with a report count attached. You can see exactly how thin the evidence is.
The consequence is that collections stay small. 12 companies, a few dozen live questions each, and a visible archive of things we can no longer confirm. That is the honest size of what can actually be verified, and we would rather show you that than pad it.
It also means some companies are missing on purpose. Their loops vary so much by team and org that a single shortlist would mislead more than it helps. We would rather ship nothing than ship a list you cannot trust.
The pipeline, briefly
- 01Submitted — A candidate writes up one question, pseudonymously.
- 02Screened — Anything NDA-covered or identifying is dropped.
- 03Held — Single reports wait, unpublished.
- 04Corroborated — An independent match promotes it to live.
- 05Re-checked — Sightings refresh the clock.
- 06Archived — Twelve months without a sighting and it ages out.
FAQ
Questions about the method
What counts as corroboration?
Two or more reports from candidates who did not interview together, describing a recognisably similar problem in the same round. When the accounts conflict on something material, the question stays unpublished until a third report breaks the tie.
How long does a question stay live?
Twelve months from its last confirmed sighting. After that it moves to an archive that is still readable but clearly marked stale, so a collection shrinking is a signal rather than a bug.
Why not just publish everything you receive?
Because an unverified pile is what already exists everywhere else, and it wastes the two weeks people have to prepare. The whole value here is that a short list can be trusted.
Are you affiliated with the companies you list?
No. Indwar has no relationship with any company named on this site, and company names are used only to describe whose loop a question came from.
What will you never accept?
Material under NDA, verbatim take-home instructions, proprietary code, internal documents, or anything that identifies a specific interviewer or panel.
