How to crack an on Campus Placement 🤔❓

I'd like to share the best book to read during the Placements is Cracking the Coding Interview

"Cracking the coding Interview by Gayle Laakmann McDowell"

This book will help you to keep you on the right tracks

    Before Coding/Aptitude Test👨‍💻

  1. Research about the Company(LinkedIn, Glassdoor and the official website).
  2. Look for previous Campus Drives experiences on GeeksForGeeks archives or Glassdoor.
  3. Work on Quantitative, Logical and Verbal abilities.
  4. Practice Coding on platforms(HackerRank, LeetCode, HackerEarth) not on your local Compiler(Eclipse, Spyder).
  5. Know your basics, don't push too much.
  6. Do not read something new and complex the day before the test.

    Post clearing the 1st Roundđź’ˇ

  1. Read extensively about the Company.(Missions and Visions)
  2. Know the history of the Company.
  3. Object Oriented Programming is the key.
  4. Add SQL and talk about it to get some easy questions during the Interview. (But don't bring it if you don't know)
  5. Go prepared to write some raw codes on the Whiteboard or on paper.
  6. Don't fall short if the recruiter cross questions your approach but welcome it.
  7. Treat the recruiter as your friend who don't understand Programming and make him easy to understand what you're trying to explain.

If not cleared🍕

It doesn't matter if you could not clear the round. It happens to best of us. But don't treat it as a failure or an end to your career. If anytime you could not make it to the Interview, ask for the below things from your Placement Cell

  • Ask for the solution key of the test.
  • Get the feedback and know where you could not do well.

Brush up those skills and get ready for you next big opportunity. Surround yourself with positive minded people and leave ASAP if they bully you or try to make you small. Give yourself a treat maybe some Pizza.
