Round 3: Technical Interview Round

• The third round Having cleared the coding round and being among the top students, I moved on to the Technical Interview round. This round was conducted by two interviewers who first ensured my comfort before diving into the questions.

• They began with the classic “Tell me about yourself” question, which allowed me to set the tone for the interview. However, as they delved into SQL topics such as Joins, subqueries, and normalization, I found myself getting nervous, with my heartbeat racing.

• Despite the pressure, I managed to compose myself and answer their questions to the best of my ability. They also asked me to write SQL queries, which I tackled with careful consideration and application of my SQL knowledge.

• The discussion then shifted to the projects I had mentioned in my resume. I shared insights into my projects, highlighting the challenges faced and the solutions implemented.

• The Technical Interview, where the focus was on assessing my understanding of core technical concepts related to full-stack development. This round delved deeper into my knowledge of web development frameworks, databases, server-side scripting languages, and front-end technologies.

• As the interview progressed, they delved into object-oriented programming concepts, including inheritance, polymorphism, and other related topics. Though challenging, I made sure to demonstrate my understanding of these concepts and how they are applied in real-world scenarios.

• Throughout the interview, I discussed my experiences with various technologies, explained my approach to solving complex problems, and answered questions related to system design and architecture. It was an engaging discussion that allowed me to demonstrate my expertise and passion for full-stack development.

• Navigating through SQL queries, project discussions, and object-oriented programming concepts, I found the interview to be both challenging and enlightening. Despite moments of nervousness, I managed to maintain composure and showcase my skills and knowledge effectively.

Suggestions:

For those preparing for technical interviews, I would suggest revising SQL concepts thoroughly, including Joins, subqueries, normalization, and understanding how to write queries effectively.

Tips:

1. Stay calm and composed during the interview. Remember, it’s okay to take a moment to gather your thoughts before answering.
2. Review your projects beforehand, highlighting key achievements and challenges faced.
3. Brush up on object-oriented programming concepts, especially inheritance and polymorphism.
4. Practice mock interviews with friends or mentors to simulate real interview scenarios and build confidence.
