🔥A candidate clears 4 rounds by solving LeetCode, explaining DSA, and sketching fancy architectures. They get the offer & Everyone claps.
But one month into the job?
- They struggle to build a simple REST API.
- Don’t know how to debug a Spring Boot service.
- Can’t deploy without googling
for hours.
Why? Because interview survival ≠ job survival.
=> Advice: Interviews should evolve.
We’re not hiring to win contests — we’re hiring to build products.
So when you interview:
- Ask about what they’ve built.
- Dive into their project structure.
- Challenge their design decisions.
- See if they’ve faced bugs in the
wild & fixed them.
Interview skills get you hired.
Real-time skills keep you relevant.
So if you’re learning Java, don’t just aim to “crack” interviews.
Build. Break. Fix. Deploy.
That’s where the real growth is.
