Facing the technical interview of a
company is an uphill task. It all depends on the mood of
the interviewer and to an extent on your appearance. If
he is in a bad mood, the interview can be really tough.
Otherwise you might have a slight consideration. Be
prepared for any questions from every section of your
skill set. If the interviewer goes to a part of your
skill, which you are not comfortable with, try to divert
his attention to some other part in which you are an
expert. Try to explain things in a simple way and be
precise in your answers. If you don't know an answer
admit it. Do Not try to make up and answer. |
