Interview
Just gave phone screening interview. Need to practice a lot on behavioural questions. I don't really understand why they have such behavioral questions for someone who is interviewing for pure coding skills. I think most of the real programmers will not be able to showcase themselves. People who can lie and have good communication skill with average programming is what they might be expecting.
