That's cool man 👏 we need more from this
And I need more of this
In India, there are going to be 5-6 rounds in most startups. MANG companies here ask for 3 DSA rounds after Phone Screening, then one Android round followed by System Design and Culture Fit.

- DSA
- Android
- Architecture
- System Design
- Behavioural / Culture Fit
Some companies have also asked me how would one differentiate between MVC, MVP and MVVM, what are the different styles of MVC (some very old apps from like 2011 are still being maintained, this is asked by those companies), and some have also asked me to depict MVP, MVVM and MVI using UML diagrams.
Architecture round also had some companies asking me to design module, package and class structure for a project like a calculator with two versions, pro and lite, where pro also supports unit conversions. Great video man!
You have some pretty good insights, what would someone like you care to find in my channel? What do you learn from my channel? Topics, tech, what is it about the channel you like and would like to see more of ?
@@odayprogrammer Thanks for the compliment. I've found your video on philosophy in recommendations while going through some videos on Cosmological Arguments and their logical fallacies, and ended up finding a like minded guy; I'm an Android Developer too by profession.
Now regarding what I'd like to watch, I'd suggest to first think what you'd want to show in your channel. However, to keep it strictly in the Android realm, I'd like to see more of system design videos. There are very few on CZcams about mobile system design, and the likes of Alex Lementuev's videos are often a bit too complicated for beginners although they are a great learning resource. Maybe there's some yet untapped space there. We can also probably discuss specifics in discord maybe.
And keep that philosophy coming, I loved that!
If anyone knows a repo for the "review this code" style, please share, I want to be prepared for that kind of session.
This has been grinding my gears for years: the absurd variety in Android dev interviews is abysmal. Some companies hit you with Android-specific questions, many of which are more suited for an 'Android Trivia Night' than a job interview. Others obsess over Java/Kotlin, diving into such niche and impractical scenarios. And let's not forget the DSA/system design ones - they're the absolute worst. I like the technical challenge and review code format since they're engaging and practical but it's exhausting to crank out multiple projects in a row for different interviews. It's especially disheartening after receiving the dreaded 'we've found a better candidate' email. I've always preferred to start working for companies with laid back interviews where they try to empower you instead of trying to crush your soul. Just my two cents on the state of Android interviews.

Uber: Wait let me change that for you Oday

nope, use coroutines
Thank you very much for rich information 🙏🤍
