Journey
I took admission in tier 2 college for B.Tech in Computer Science. Firstly I planned that I will start learning DSA from the first year but I could not. So, I started DSA from the fourth semester and along with DSA, I also learned development because that is what I wanted to be. By the end of Third year, I was confident in both DSA and development but even then I keep on revising the concepts.
Application story
I got a message in my whatsapp group about the company visiting our campus for the hiring of SDE-1. As, I was in the fourth year, it was sure that I am going to apply for it. I started preparing accordingly and got selected at last.
Why selected/rejected for the role?
I was confident during the full interview process. Actually, I worked a lot on my communications skills and I think they were the main reasons for me getting par the selection process.
