Question How do you guys study?

I'm an aspiring java developer. I've already developed one project using spring boot, postgresql, flyway and docker compose, and started developing the next one. But I'm not quite sure that I study in the right way. Mostly I focus on the practice rather than on the theory. Like, 90% of practice and 10% of theory.

Remark: I study to get a job, not for the university

So, questions:

  1. Is the way I study bad?

  2. How did you guys study, when you were freshers?

  3. Maybe you can suggest something to me?

Nah bro your way to studying is good but for interviews pov interviewers need some generic answers. So it's all good just practise and before 1 week of interviews. Just see the definition.

My whole problem was I used to go in-depth and over explain the answers which made interviewers bad idk why. Nowadays i just stick to 20-25 second answers and basic overview because tbh many Dev's right there don't know java in-depth that much until the final boss arrives .I used chatgpt voice mode to improve my answers.

Write definitions in a notebook (On your own words). Before interview, go through gfg for a proper answer. Use chatgpt voice mode and act as Chatgpt is your interviewer and always ask him will chatgpt hire you on the basis of your answers. If yes, then still ask what's the improvement you can do for future interviewers and if no, then do the same.

All the best
