21
+ # AskedBefore CS Interview Questions
22
+
23
+ 1,350 computer science interview questions, each labelled with its **subject** (9 classes) and **difficulty** (easy / medium / hard). Built for training and evaluating question-topic classifiers, and as a practice bank for placement and internship interviews.
24
+
25
+ ## Dataset structure
26
+
27
+ | Column | Description |
28
+ |---|---|
29
+ | `id` | Unique id (`ab-0000` to `ab-1349`) |
30
+ | `question` | The interview question, one sentence |
31
+ | `subject` | One of 9 subjects (below) |
32
+ | `difficulty` | `easy`, `medium` or `hard` |
33
+ | `source_type` | `original`: written for this dataset, not copied from any website |
34
+ | `version` | `v1` (first 720 questions) or `v2` (630 added in the second release) |
35
+
36
+ **Subjects (150 questions each):** DSA, Operating Systems, DBMS & SQL, Computer Networks, OOP, System Design, Machine Learning, Statistics & Analytics, Behavioral / HR.
37
+
38
+ **Difficulty per subject:** about 38 easy, 86 medium and 26 hard.
39
+
40
+ ## How it was made
41
+
42
+ - Questions cover concepts commonly tested in software engineering, ML and data interviews.
43
+ - Every question is **written in original wording**. None are copied from interview-prep websites, problem platforms or company question lists.
44
+ - Questions were drafted with AI assistance and then reviewed and labelled by the maintainer.
45
+ - Difficulty labels are a judgement call and should be treated as approximate.
46
+
47
+ ## Versions
48
+
49
+ - **v1:** 720 questions (80 per subject).
50
+ - **v2:** 630 more questions (70 per subject), for 1,350 total. Ids of v1 questions did not change.
51
+
52
+ ## Intended uses
53
+
54
+ - Training text classifiers that tag a question with its subject (baselines: TF-IDF + Logistic Regression, Random Forest, XGBoost).
55
+ - Practice question banks for students preparing for technical interviews.
56
+
57
+ ## Limitations
58
+
59
+ - Questions are short and in English only.
60
+ - The dataset does **not** say which company asked which question. It covers concepts, not company-specific reports.
61
+ - Some questions sit between subjects (for example, LRU cache appears in both DSA and System Design interviews); each has one label.
