Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Be confident about your concepts. Sometimes they will pose questions where there is a missing information and you need to point it out. Smile in between and remember that you should answer the questions in a simplistic manner so that even a non-tech background person can understand your answers. This is very underrated and very much appreciated. Using fancy technical jargons is not appreciated. But to demonstrate your knowledge you may use those jargons only after you have explained its meaning. Be aware that reply to interview answers in a way you teaching a kid asking questions.
