C# internship interview

Hi! I just got an invitation for an interview. This is c# .Net internship in a rail company. That’s gonna be my first interview and I wonder what questions can I get? So please recruiters - tell me what do you ask your interns or juniors on the interviews and you fellow interns and juniors - what questions did you hear lately?

@radox Show the interviewer that you are interested. Ask questions, follow up with questions. They will ask you, about your strength and weaknesses. Why do you think, you are qualified for this position. If you have some projects to showcase, that's a bonus point. Most of the time, the interviewer has no clue about programming in general. In the final stages, they set you up with someone that knows the stuff. If it's the first interview, the might just ask some simple questions that are unrelated to the position. It depends from interviewer to interviewer. Regardless, make sure you are ready. They might ask, tell me about a time when you had to overcome a hurdle? Don't be afraid to lie a bit. Don't put yourself down.

Lying during an interview is the one sure way you won't get hired. If the interviewer discovers it. That's terrible advice.

Unless it's "the gap in my resume was NDA'd, sorry" But, yeah, telling the interviewer that you absolutely positively worked with WCF while thinking it's probably something like WPF will bite you sooner or later

If a modern AI is available in your country, like ChatGPT, ask it to behave like a C# interviewer and give you a mock interview. The more context you feed it, such as company size, possible products, level of the job, job description, the better it performs like an ordinary interviewer.

I don't know man, one of the companies that I applied for. Was using another company for the initial process. She literally told me, not to be afraid to over exaggerate. I guess, over-exaggerate should have been the word.
