One thing I did was after every interview I went back and gave a thought what was the interviewer trying to ask, why was I not able to see the bigger picture and get the hints. Did some mock interview with friends and realized my answers and solutions sounded more like poetry rather than a conversation. I’ve started to think why the interviewer is asking any particular question, what is he/she trying to check?
