Why Working in a Startup Is a Blessing for Freshers Working in a startup company is truly a blessing, especially for freshers. Unlike big companies where roles are limited, startups give you real responsibility, learning, and growth from day one. Every task teaches you something new, and every challenge helps you grow faster. Recently, I experienced this personally when I was assigned a new project — a university website development .

I was happy, but at the same time, I felt nervous when I heard that a technical interview would be scheduled. I had never faced a long technical interview before, so fear was natural. But I decided not to panic. Instead, I chose to prepare well and trust my learning journey. How I Prepared for the Interview I focused on my core technical skills rather than trying to learn everything at once. I revised the technologies I had already worked with and practiced explaining them clearly. My main preparation areas were: React Hooks like useState and useEffect Routing in React applications Props and component structure Toaster notifications for user feedback Basic Node.js and Express to understand backend flow I also practiced explaining concepts in simple words, because interviews test understanding, not just memo...
