- Q1. For Experienced candidate this is the common round else there will be Coding Test and other tech rounds. I am always asked on the detailed work and my contribution to the projects and introduce yourself.
- Ans. In every round interviewer is not the same. So I give brief description on my domain area like I am a MCA graduate or B.Tech on particular field etc. and the skills what I know and have worked with upto date. The every word should be clear to what we have mentioned in resume. Because question they ask from resume itself i.e the job for what we have applied and got shortlisted so that we are fruitful to the company and
- Q2. Second thing is on technical questions. They ask questions if we know about the particular technology.
- Ans. If I know the answer and have used the technology in practical, I answer it. Else if I have little idea I ask the interviewer to elaborate little or sometimes have short discussion on it. Otherwise I say sorry, I don't know.
- Q3. Sometimes some coding also is asked like what will be the output and explain it.
- Ans. They try to test here how I put my thinkng and corner cases or base case. So the syntax may be missing somewhere but the paradigm, the steps, the cases what we write there and what approach we took to solve it, is mattered. So in meanwhile while explaining we can correct the syntax also telling "sorry I missed out ...here". Even if have not completed still in half way they may ask the approach.

- Ans.
Trie is a tree data structure used for efficient retrieval of key-value pairs.
Trie is also known as prefix tree.
Each node in a trie represents a single character of a key.
Trie is commonly used in autocomplete and spell checking algorithms.
Example: Inserting 'apple' and 'app' into a trie would result in a structure where 'app' is a prefix of 'apple'.
- Q2. LRU Implementation
- Ans.
LRU (Least Recently Used) is a cache eviction policy that removes the least recently used items first.
LRU cache stores key-value pairs with a maximum capacity.
When the cache is full, the least recently used item is removed to make space for new items.
Each time a key is accessed, it is moved to the front of the cache to indicate it was recently used.
