Interview Preparation Tips
Do practice a lot of questions on linked list and stacks as these are two most important data structures asked in the interview. Also, try to implement it yourself without seeing the solution. Also prepare for Computer Science subjects like Operating System, Database Management System, Computer Networks, etc. I prepared them through Coding Ninjas notes which were simpler and easy to understand.
Application resume tips for other job seekersKeep your resume short and up to mark and check spellings before submitting it for the interview process.
