Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - The interviewer wanted to test both my knowledge and communication skills. Most of the questions asked to me were related to the work/process that they are going to heir. They stressed a lot on the basics and background that I have had related to the project/work that I was going to do. Luckily I was able to answer most of the questions correctly. It was my first offcampus interview, and I think I did pretty well for a fresher. You need to stay calm and should apply presence of mind. Please go through the job description thoroughly word-by-word and recheck your resume to ensure that you are a best-fit for the position.
