Java Developer

I started preparing for DSA just 3-4 months before the interview, feeling a bit unsure at the beginning. However, after a week or two, I found myself getting more interested in solving DSA problems. I covered basic questions on Trees, Singly Linked Lists, and Arrays on coding platforms. In the middle of my preparation, I took a break for a month. When I started attending interviews, I felt like I had forgotten what I had learned in the past few months. That's when I realized the importance of continuous practice. I went back and practised the same set of questions again. While I faced rejections in some initial rounds, after 4-5 interviews, I gained confidence and understood what companies were looking for. For system design, I studied a few use cases online, and my previous exposure in my organization helped me understand essential considerations when developing an application from scratch. This comprehensive preparation paid off in the end.

I applied via Naukri. It was essentially a walk-in drive at the Noida location. I attended, expecting them to conduct all the rounds on the same day, but they only conducted one of my rounds.

I was selected for this role because of my knowledge of Java and my problem-solving ability. However, I declined the offer because it did not meet my compensation expectations.
