How I Prepared And Cracked My Java Interview
Java Interview Preparation Methods with Important Books
Are you thinking of grabbing a job but it is difficult to prepare for interviews?
In this article, I will reveal the practical methods that I applied to crack my Java interview.
There is no rocket science in this. I also understood these methods after failing many times. But after applying this, I myself was able to crack 3–4 interviews easily.
So in this article, we will discuss
- 3 points with which you can prepare for interviews in < 15 days.
- 3 books with which you can easily crack the hardest interviews in Java.
Important Books Link is mentioned at the end of this article.
As you have seen in interviews, people are not able to answer properly because their preparation is not strong enough. If you are also not able to give a satisfying answer in interviews, then there is only one main reason for this.
You miss important topics while preparing.
1. Topics Research Before Preparation 🔍
The benefit of this is that you will get a starting point and an endpoint to prepare and you can list down the questions in Mostly asked in interview order.
First of all,
- list down all the topics from Google.
- then mark the important topics by simply searching
what are the popular topics in Java interviews. - then divide all the topics into known and unknown.
Known is the one in which you know a little bit about the topic and unknown is the one which you see for the first time or you don’t know anything about it.
Once you have discovered all the topics, then don’t directly jump on theory. Instead, you can start with interview questions and answers.
There are many such websites. But I will prefer InterviewBit, GeeksForGeeks and JavaRevisited because the quality and quantity of the questions here are both good which are asked in interviews.
2. Quality Notes Making 📝
Good notes can increase your memory power by 80%. You have to make notes in such a way that once you see it and remember it. You can include these things in your notes.
- Visual diagram.
- Important points under each topic.
- Highlight important words.
Just keep in mind that you don’t have to make your notes too messy or too long. Because these notes will be very useful to you 15 minutes
before the interview. If while making notes, you feel that
- This topic is very important.
- There are subtopics in it.
- There can be important codes in it.
In such a case, you can read the questions and answers in
detail in GeeksForGeeks.
Also, you need to practice coding questions well. Because in 90% of the interviews, you will be asked to write a code after each question.
For example, for Java, there are many things like
It is best to practice coding questions in handwritten notes. Because you won’t forget it quickly. And at the same time, you will be able to answer easily in interviews.
If after doing all this, you find it difficult to prepare for the interview.
Then I guarantee that you will not be doing one thing after giving the interview.
And that is…….
3. Post-Interview Analysis 📈
No matter how your interview went, good or bad. It is better that without regretting your past interview you can immediately note down all the questions that have been asked in the interview and you can prepare all these questions in a better way. Especially on those questions on which you have not been able to answer well.
Best Books for Java Preparation 👍
Many people need a guide for Java interview preparation. In which there is a proper theory, diagrams, interview questions and answers.
So you can follow & purchase these books.
If you want to learn deeply in Java or if you want to prepare for important Java certifications. Like SCJP, OCP, OCA. So I will recommend these two books.
These two are one of the best books to learn deeply in Java.
If you prepare like this for interviews, then surely it will bring positive
the impact will be 101% on your future interviews.
