1. GO BEYOND ‘ABOUT US’
Besides just knowing and understanding a company’s
services, products, and history, it is recommended to
go deeper and also understand its culture, vision and
mission. Knowing the job title of those interviewing
you is an added advantage as it can help you look
them up on social media platforms, like LinkedIn,
which can further help you in predicting the
questions to an extent.

2. GEAR UP FOR STANDARD
ASSESSMENT METHODS
Expect either a combination or at least one of the
three standard assessment methods used to assess
the candidates.
1. Scenario-based questions
These questions usually involve a coding problem,
the solution to which you are expected to provide
on a whiteboard. While solving the problem,
remember that through the process, the interviewer
is trying to understand your thought process and
reaction under pressure.

2. Competency based questions
These questions focus on your achievements and
projects you have worked on. To make an impact,
make sure you have gone through your CV
thoroughly and try to predict the competency-based
questions you might be asked with respect to your
skills, projects, and experience.

3. Technical questions
“Tell me how you’d find the first non-repeating
element in an array” is a perfect example of a
technical question. The type of technical
questions you are asked depend mostly on the
kind of role you have worked in and experience
you have acquired. You can handle these
questions by reading the job description
thoroughly beforehand and identify the
questions you may be asked.

3. MASTER SOFT SKILLS
Technical skills accompanied by a set of soft
skills, like adaptability, and good communication
skills, make you a complete package for an
employer. Practice how to share your
explanations before tech and non-tech experts
before your interview and get a clear and
concise feedback to overcome your shortcomings.
