Do’s and Don’ts of the Interview

Here are some key do’s and don’ts based on my interview experience:

Do’s:

– Be Thorough with Your Resume: Ensure every detail on your resume is accurate and be prepared to discuss each point.

– Prepare for Theoretical Questions: Focus on theoretical concepts, especially in OOP, OS, DBMS, and CN.

– Stay Engaged: Maintain eye contact and stay attentive during the online interview to show your interest and enthusiasm.

– Clarify Questions: If you don’t understand a question, don’t hesitate to ask for clarification. It’s better to seek clarity than to give an incorrect answer.

Don’ts:

– Don’t Falsify Information: Never include false information on your resume. Be honest about your skills and experiences.

– Don’t Neglect Basic Concepts: Make sure you have a solid understanding of basic concepts, as these are often the foundation for more complex questions.

– Avoid Overcomplicating Answers: Keep your answers concise and to the point. Overcomplicating can lead to confusion and miscommunication.

Since the interview was for an internship there was only 1 round called coding + HR round. This made the process straightforward yet demanding, as I needed to be prepared for a range of questions and topics within a limited timeframe. It was supposed to be of 45 minutes but in my case interview went bit long (more than 1 hour) . The online meeting required me to have both my camera and microphone on throughout the session, ensuring active engagement and interaction.
