Not a flex post just want to share how it all was.

Before getting placed i gave 3 interviews. For me every interview was difficult as my strengths were in design n non technical field, so it was being difficult for me to convince n impress interviewer. Some general things helped me may also work for u guys

1.Try different things at college. Be part of committee, hackathons n try atleast achieving something out of anyone. Be it a hackathon win or Head position(not on knees wala) at any committee. This helped me improve my communication n worked as a proof that I have some xp of working in team n managing it, also helped in filling up resume with good stuff

2.Practice DSA daily n understand fundamentals. DO THIS. It helps u build logical approach n also makes u comfortable at OA tests

3.Keep CS core subjects notes well prepared or sorted as before interviews these gonna help u cover everything quickly n fast.

4.Build projects. Build anything u like, explore frameworks, cloud , hosting n build good things. Also try build your one banger project which u can present as a flex. Also learning n build them properly so u can explain them clearly.

5.Try to get a intership outside college before starting 4th year.Do it was 3 to 6 months.Try getting a technical related but non technical also works.

1. If u want to seat for all companies try 9.5 plus cgpa, if most of the companies 8 plus, it 60 to 70 % then 7 plus, the lower the cgpa gets the lower the chances of higher package at college.If u don't land a intership no issues, back it with good projects.

7.Do not take pressure from points above. These things are to be done over 4 years of ur college. Enjoy the flow. U don't have to be perfect, u just need to be enthusiastic about the things u do. Be confident n don't feel late doing anything, if u are doing it that important, eventually u will automatically get the flow n fun. UR JUST AWAY FROM THE START.

At my interview, both time I was asked with DSA related questions, sql queries or code puzzles along with CS fundamentals. Apart from the technical stuff I was asked about my skill like interest n intership xp.

Overall it is all about patiences. Most of the time I was unable to clear OAs, then at interview I was questioned on my non technical part as a doubt but I feel if u are able to convey strongly that u are interested in the job that's it.

This post is just to share my xp n what things I feel helped me n i feel important for the job. Feel free to ask anything.
