Interview Preparation Tips
Don't answer questions in a single line or single word .Try to expand your answer for above 30 seconds try to tell examples and one or two facts extra .I can say eat time so interviewer wont get time to ask too many questions at the same time he will get impressed your explaining skills .
Another technique I use as i mentioned above tell one or two facts introduce a keyword or new hint for him to ask question on that. For example when the interviewer asked me about polymorphism i my self mentioned there are different types then he asked what are that types then in mentioned virtual function in my answer then he asked what is virtual function. They wont come prepared with a list of questions to ask .So it depends a lot how you end the before answer
BEST OF LUCK!!!!!
