Yep. I always break down the solutions I purpose and ask them if they want me to code it up. I walk them through the solution. I give them trade offs between different solutions (if there is an alternative that has the same time/space complexity). Everything... :/

EDIT: But - really - I'm not looking for feedback or critiques in this format. I've done this endlessly with people online. Instead - it would be useful to me to recommend services or experiences with mock interview services. I'm having a hard time believing anyone can give me real insight here that I haven't corrected myself. (But that insight could exist through mock interviews)

My gf is a management consultant, and prepped a lot for her interviews. She learned that there is such a thing as prepping too much, as your performance can come across too stilted/canned/robotic.

Have you ever filmed your performance in a practice session?

I've given tons of mock interviews, so if you want a fresh set of eyes let me know.

It sounds like you're threatening your interviewers' egos.
You're probably interviewing with all the people who have chimed in that you can't possibly be that good.
have you heard of interviewing.io?
