Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process was well laid out. The recruiter contacted me with the job requirements and scheduled the interview for next week.

The interview was good and not too tough. One should know the fundamentals of C#, .NET Framework Core, MVC, and Entity Framework Core.

There were a couple of questions on:

  • REST APIs
  • HTTP methods
  • Filtering in REST APIs

Lastly, there were a few questions from Data Structures on String manipulation and Arrays.

Questions

  1. What are collections in C#? What are the advantages of non-generic collections over generic collections?

  2. What are early binding and late binding?

  3. How can we implement caching at the client-side for a Redbus application?

  4. What are the various types of caching?

  5. Discussion on microservices architecture.
