Interview Preparation Tips
Tip 1 : Coding Problems are asked from DSA, so a good practice of standard problems is a must. Revisit these problems before the interview to ace and crack the interview.
Tip 2 : To tackle the conceptual questions, you need to have thorough knowledge about the concepts, so to prepare for OS and DBMS, read one standard book.
Tip 3 : Have proper and clear knowledge about your project. Basic but tricky questions are asked based on the internship experience and the projects you have done.
Tip 1 : The best way to ace an interview is to take command of your interview in your hands. And this is done by having a balanced resume. Projects give direction to the interview and increase the probability of selection. So add at least 2 projects.
Tip 2 : Urban Company seeks team players and not just good coders. So add your achievements outside the academics to get shortlisted.

Round 2 - Technical: The second round focused more on system design and APIs. I was asked to explain the difference between PUT and POST in REST APIs, design the database schema of one of my projects, and discuss inheritance and access modifiers (public, private, protected). Git commands were also covered. A scenario-based question was presented: "How would you send an email to a million users, ensuring that if an email fails, the system retries sending it three times? If the retries fail, the system should move on to the next email. Additionally, if the system crashes after sending 1000-2000 emails, how would you ensure that upon restart, it resumes from where it left off without resending emails?"
The HR was friendly, clearly explained the next steps, and provided constructive feedback. Overall, it was a positive interview experience.

Interview Preparation Tips
Tip 1 : Practice regularly, meaning once you have covered all the topics, revisit them every week, and solve 3-5 questions.
Tip 2 : Use the Feynman technique. Explain your approach towards solving the problem to someone, or better yet, note it down so that when you revisit that question, the explanation is handy.
Tip 3 : Do 1 project, preferably a full-stack one including a database. This would provide some material for discussion, and be through with each aspect of the project.
Tip 1 : Keep the resume to one page and put info that is directly related to the role applied.
Tip 2 : In the projects section, keep a maximum of 3 projects, but ensure that at least one of them is hosted/live that can be shown to the interviewer.
