This book highlights the most important topics for iOS interview prep. Some sections might be less frequently asked questions but pretty informative nevertheless.This book helped me as a good resource of revising my prep before interviews. To make the most of the book, I would definitely recommend to consider the questions as topics to study and supplement your knowledge with other resources online, if you wish to go deeper into a topic. (Eg. The book mentions NSLock, but reading more about the topic will help you understand some other types of locks like NSRecursiveLock)Overall, well written, and worth reading for interview preparation.

I recently had the privilege of reading "The Ultimate iOS Interview Playbook" by Avi Tsadok, and I must say that this book is great for anyone looking to get a job as an iOS developer.The book does a good job of covering all aspects of preparing for an iOS technical interview. I personally found the section covering preparing your resume to be invaluable. I applied several tips to spruce up my own resume.The book seems to address three core groups of developers who can benefit from the contents:1) Junior Developers who are looking for their first job. The book offers guidance on the minimum skills and knowledge required to secure a position as a junior iOS developer and start a successful career.2) Mid-level and Senior developers looking to advance. The book gives valuable insight into the skills needed to advance to the next level.3) Senior developers who need to revisit topics. For experienced developers who need to brush up on APIs that they have not used in awhile this book is perfect for revisiting those fundamentals.The book also does a great job of handling the legacy of UIKit while also providing coverage SwiftUI which is the future of iOS development. Many developers who get jobs will still encounter apps that are built with UIKit and it is important to have knowledge of those important frameworks.The final chapter that goes over the aspects of how to handle the technical interview are worth the purchase alone. This chapter gives developers a clear plan to succeed whether it is whiteboard coding or a take home test.This is a book that should be in the library of every iOS and Mac developer.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
