Introduction
Preparation for product-based company interviews goes beyond just solving coding questions. It includes DSA fundamentals, System Design understanding, and the capability of handling new technical challenges.
For Vishwas Shukla, who studied at Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology (VNIT), Nagpur, following a systematic process of learning was crucial for his career.
By joining the Bosscoder Academy program, Vishwas was able to refine his problem-solving skills and increase his confidence in technical interviews.
Reasons Why Vishwas Shukla Chose Bosscoder Academy
Being a working professional, Vishwas preferred having a structured learning route instead of using scattered information available online.
Vishwas found it easier to learn about technical concepts through a structured curriculum.
Key Takeaways from His Journey
These are the things which helped him learn throughout the journey.
1. Building Strong DSA and Problem-Solving Skills
The DSA classes concentrated more on the concept of problem-solving approaches rather than memorizing the solution to them.
What he learned:
- Improved knowledge about coding approaches.
- Betterment of his skills in selecting the correct approach.
- Confidence in solving the problems.
- Practice through coding classes and assessments.
As Vishwas mentions:
"The classes concentrate on developing the intuition in selecting an approach rather than memorizing them, which made me much faster in solving the new problems."
2. Understanding Practical System Design
System Design was yet another thing he learned about that stood out for him. The module made learning about theories applicable to software architecture more practical for him.
What he learned from the module:
- Scalable software system design.
- Trade-offs in architectural design.
- Requirement breakdowns and estimation.
- System design interview questions.
In his own words:
"The system design module was yet another highlight for me since it makes concepts like real-world architecture, trade-offs, and scalability more practical and interview-oriented."
3. Learning with Consistency and Instructor Support
The other thing that Vishwas appreciated about his experience was the consistent nature of his learning:
- Practicing code regularly and assessments.
- Clear explanations from instructors.
- Quick clarification of doubts.
- Identification of weaknesses.
Conclusion
The career path of Vishwas Shukla shows an example of one of the key steps towards becoming a software engineer, gaining a deep knowledge base and practice in problem-solving.
