Tip
Tip

Tip 1 : Practice DSA and have a proper grasp on that as cramming wont help you because the questioned asked are different and you might get confused and rather you wont be able to answer at all 
Tip 2 : When you are preparing for the company be it off campus or on-campus always go through the job description and read it carefully what technologies they use because they might ask some question related to it 
Tip 3 : In my views if you are starting to code then start with GFG , for me it worked you will get all level question from basic and then you can move to platforms like LEETCODE , LEETFREE 
Tip 4 : Don't rush ever if you think you are not able to solve question , don't panic everyone is not able to do good but the main thing is to develop your thought process and its done by practicing more and more questions
Tip 5 : While solving don't try to look for answer at once, read the question understand it try to make a flow chart on paper and try to code it if after a long try if you are not able to solve then have a look at it and analyze where you went wrong .
Tip 6 : Always make a time table it will help you to prepare well and on time with every concept 
Tip 7 : Do a minimum of 2 to 3 projects that you know well because sometimes they may ask you to run in front of them and explain it so you should be confident enough to explain
Tip 8 : While giving a interview don't ever say a no to any question just try to answer what all you know related to it and reply in positive that you know that much related to this topic and don't try to fool them as they catch mistakes easily 
Tip 9 : Last but not least always keep a smile on your face and don't be nervous it will help you to show that you are confident enough and it will be interesting for both of you .

Application process

Resume Tip
Resume tip
